Yea we can probs up the security questions or something I haven't much spam but have been busy with finals. Where/ bots / further explain a bit if you can. thanks

we're getting a lot of posters posting links to viagra ads etc. no linked ips or anything though

whenever i see one i use the spam moderator tool to ban them and delete all their posts at once

but ive probably had to vanquish nearly 10 in the last few days

Is this software supporting 'grace period' like official board did?
As in, first 15 posts of a new member are going to mod queue then get released in public upon checks. Don't think it would be much more work for mods than it is now.

Top priority currently. Apologies for the unwarranted delay on this annoying issue. There is currently protection against bots (captcha, DNS checks, and registration checks against spam database) however, there still seem to be some getting through. Will update the thread once a more viable solution has been found.
