lylesback2 Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 I made a post at this forum i use. neowin.net. People come in every now and then, and spam the **** out of us. i think it is very very annoying, and sometimes moderators or admins are not avaliable. if there was a spam filter, disabling a user to post the same topic title more then once.. that would slow down, and prevent spammers from flooding the forum. i was wondering if this could be possible?

tomek__w Posted May 7, 2005 Share Posted May 7, 2005 You can block/ban names, email addresses and IP addresses - I would have thought that would be enough to deter them! TTFN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lylesback2 Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 You can block/ban names, email addresses and IP addresses - I would have thought that would be enough to deter them! TTFN but not even this option to slow them down? or prevent mass spammers? spam bots etc.. i am only speaking to help IMPROVE your forums, i am not a moderator, or an admin of a forum, i am simple a members at neowin, who gets really pissed off when little faeces heads post to get members... but thanks for reading :ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottydawg Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 There are measures to prevent this. Enableing GD usually stops bots and email verification. Its its actual people who are doing it, theres not much more you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
