Title: Spam
Post by: P3D on January 23, 2008, 04:36:25 PM
A new member 'chx_gorgeous joined', and the name and email looks spam. I suggest to make sure that registration requires Admin approval so SPAM won't be possible (I don't remember what settings were/are).

Also, delete the word 'General' from the board names. That helped to overcome some spambots on another forum.

Ahoj!
I believe that indeed registration needs approval. I approved the gorgeous chick :).
If that member indeed is a spammer, the Righteous Fury of the Boot of Retribution will be swift and merciless.

The IP is from the Philipines, traceable to makati city.

If you are not sure wether or not this is a spam user, just let users like that unchanged for 24 hrs and activate them after that, mostly they will not spam after such a long time.
