Fowler Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 It is not as bad as it used to be prior to upgrading to IPB. Also there is no way to stop spammers 100% and human spam is increasing so there always will be some spam. Adding a check against the stopforumspam.com database to check emails against the database upon signup might be useful. The biggest issue is that spam posts tend to be visible for a very long time. The current spam posts have been visible for around 12 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
