New member boom... -
Whisky-Ace - 30-09-13
Hi all...
I dont know if its just me, thinking this...
We are getting alot of new members 460 to 465 in a week.
Only 3 of the 460+ new members are posting and they are spamming the forum.
I know olskool720 have made somthing to stop the spamming...
But i think it is becoming worse...
The most users online at one time was 184 on Saturday, September 28th, 2013 at 07:38 PM
What can we do about it ???

I've just had a Thread jumped all over by spam. Annoying.

Ollie will prob know more than me but can't we put some sort of anti bot check when signing up eg - Capcha (I know this can be a pain when you can't read the damn text, but you know what I'm getting at.)

Those spammers love that snowboard thread

That snowboard thread was mine! Get rid of it - it's not important. Delete that whole thread. Is it possible to delete all new members with zero posts and then add some sort of letter code thing for sign up?

How about New members from recommendations from recognized and trusted members?
Am sure this has been suggested before :/

Or when the reputation is -3 all posts from the last few weeks will be deleted? Than 3 people other than the mods can ban a member and most regular members have a reputation above 5 so it is not possible to become a victim as a regular member.

Didn't realise I could do it myself! Somebody beat me to it though.
