I can't thank you enough for this mod, and can't believe I've never used it before! For some reason, for the past few days, I've had an influx of spammers joining, even though I have captcha, security questions and all the rest of it. It was beginning to take up so much of my time.

However, since I've installed this awesome mod just a few hours ago, it's already stopped 12 spammers from joining!

Once again, thank you! :)

My site just went from PR2 to PR3 but still the flood of spammers this weekend has been so strange. I keep checking the logs because I feel like legit new registrations are being banned. Every time though it checks out and is a spammer. I'm just using email as a criteria as well. Something like 80-85 this one weekend.

Thank you so much for this mod. I installed it a while ago and wasn't automatically blocking new registrations because I only got 1 or 2 bad ones a day, starting last week I have been getting about 20 - 30 bad ones a day. I turned on blocking registrations that were in the StopForumSpam database and it has made my life so much easier.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Seems to be working ok. Just installed it on 2 forums.

Is there a solution to the blog spammers?

Nevermind, my bad.

I'm having an issue with VBulletin 4.2 PL2 -

When this mod is installed it throws an http 500 error when a user tries to post a reply.

No matter what I turn off within the configuration, it continues to happen.

Any ideas?

Figured out the problem, you need to edit the product-glowhostspamomatic.xml file and change all the lines that say TYPE=MyISAM to ENGINE=MyISAM

I like to have the Spam-O-Matic option when selecting threads, not just when selecting posts.

Thank you to Glowhost.com for this amazing mod! Love it.

With 130 pages in this thread, it was hard to search for info. This has probably already been requested, but just in case....

I would like the mod to write to the user profile Banning area viewable in the admincp where it shows the "Ban Reason" so I will know that it was banned by SOM after the user has spammed. As of now, the reason is blank. Perhaps a definable message such as "User posted url/spam" etc. would work.

Anyway, no need for a reply (unless I missed such a capability).

Thanks again. -- Rik
