Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion Spam PM, anyone?

Mark, are you reading this thread?

Hi Val - I have seen it, and noticed all the new user names that are spammers. When tracing the IP addresses I've noticed that these spammers are all posting from the same region/countries; I may be able to block that region from accessing the board if the trend continues. I can at least ban each user from posting when I notice the weird screen name.

Also, thank you to everyone who has notified me of spam recently! Much appreciated.

Best,
Mark

Thank you, Mark.

Yes, thank you very much, Mark.


IP filtering has done wonders on my board for reducing forum-spam. We don't just reject new registries, of course-- but they do require administrator approval if they come from some regions.
