This thing has saved me so much moderation time... it's ridiculous. This is by far the best mod I have with regards to cutting down my admin time. Ten more thumbs up.

Works great! :up: Caught 4 spambots on the first night.

Thanks so much for this great mod!

mine had been working well, been receiving e-mails just fine, and now just recently i've not been getting e-mails and bots are getting in.

i checked my templates and re-imported the product, also checked the hooks. all seems to be in place.

any ideas?

15 seconds and under is the recomendation. Reg Bots are super quick, aprox 7 - 18 sec, per reg page.

turn it down a few sec.

am pretty sure this is incorrect. The code is written such that if they get in UNDER the time you specify they're flagged as a bot. so a higher time should nab more at the risk of getting legit users, however.
Code:

        if ($isbot_timediff <= 15) // difference in seconds
        {
                $isbot_username = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['username']);
                $isbot_email = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['email']);

                $isbot_subject = $vbphrase['isbot_user_blocked_from_registering'];
                $isbot_message = $vbphrase['isbot_the_following_name_email_blocked']
...
}

Awesome mod! Thank you! :up:

one thing i'd like to see in the future, or if anybody knows how to do it, is the IP address of the offender put into the e-mail that is sent.

then, you couple this mod w/ the IP No Register mod and you can ban repeat offenders from even trying.

I did that to mine 2 minutes after I installed it. All you need to add is IP: IPADDRESS

just had the following occur:

@ 7:52am CST:


@ 7:56am CST:


@ 7:58am CST



He got through.. note the IP address is different for all three attempts!

note the same e-mail address each time. this is why the auto-ban e-mail is a good option.

yup found that in some previous posts after more searching. thanks though.
also implemented the auto ip & auto e-mail banning. we'll see how it goes!

Can you point me to the auto email and IP banning?

This is an amazing plugin. I've just come back to find out how to get it to stop sending me emails, because in the couple weeks since I've installed it, it's blocked over 500 bot signups!

I'm so glad I added this! The spam on the site has been dramatically reduced, giving the mods just that much less to worry about. Fantastic!
