Thank you for this mod. I think this mod along with Human Verification and a couple of other hacks I have installed (Moderate New Registrations Based On IP Geographical Origin and Forbid Users from Posting Links or Images if They Have Fewer than 15 Posts) will eliminate the SPAM activity for good.

Thanks for that, I commented out that line and hopefully it will stop sending me emails.

On my forum I found that line in register_addmember_process, under IS Bot in the Plug in Manager.

Great help, thanks.

Caution, Advised!

I made the change suggested in the post copied below, in register_addmember_process, under IS Bot in the Plug in Manager. The change stopped me from getting the emails, which was great. But it also resulted in visitors getting the error below, when they tried to register.

16 minutes since install...4 registrations blocked...avg elapsed time 2 seconds. Thanks again for a GREAT MOD.

Hi,

is this mod working at 3.8.4 of VB ??

Thanks,
John B.

Yes, I have it installed and working on 3.8.4.

Well, I installed it on 3.8.3, updated to 3.8.4... and just had my first bot going through... is it really working?

Well, I said to give it a try in my 3.7.0 that we are now (we will update next week) but...
nothing happend :(

I changed the time to 20 seconds just to see. If it won't work I will give also a try in 3.8.4

I hope that there will work beacause we have about 20 spam registrations per day. :mad::mad:

Confirmed working on 3.8.4! Thanks to the author.
