This is the coolest plugin there is!

Of the last 40 forum spammer attempted registration, 38 were prevented.

It compares new registrants against stopForumSpam.com's databases of IP, username and email addresses of known spammers and prevents their registraiotn.
VBulletin should have this feature included as the default install.
Nice work!

You know, in all my time running this mod, I never thought to ask this.

How do you override for a single user who you know isn't a spammer, but is still being flagged by one of the triggers? I'm not aware of a way you can whitelist specific terms, but ONLY for your local forum install. I wouldn't want to corrupt the main db with that, but for specific instances I'd like to override just for my local install.

How do you do that, short of creating the user yourself?

Was installed on our Forum running 3.8.7 - Since upgrade to 4.2.3 we've had a flood of spammers so I've enabled this to see if there's any change. No errors thrown up, so hopefully it's working 'nicely'.

Bad move going to 4.x you should have googled "Vbulletin Reviews" first. We are creatures of habit but sometimes enough is enough.

We did extensive reading etc of all the reviews, bad, indifferent and the odd good one!

Not being creatures of habit we, eventually, decided to stay where are - but upgrade so our Host could install PHP5.5/5.6.
So far, apart from some good plugins that don't translate across, we and our members are happy.

Funny, this, you coming into vB.org and criticising vBulletin software....but thanks for your thoughts.

Report :

Has 'sorted' our spammers - so it works adequately in vB 4.2.3...

I previously used Vbulletin and was subscribed to this topic. I unsubscribed from all topics now.

Is this one a copy of that one or is that one a copy of this one?
