I am trying this on my newest forum.

What's crazy is I am getting TONS of spammers going to my small forum, but my larger forum has little to no spam at all. They are both set up the same way too.

If anyone wants to click my links in my sig to see if there is anything they think they can do to help me with the spam it would be GREATLY appreciated.

It's called vBStopForumSpam and it is endorsed by www.StopForumSpam.com on their site.

It also has the features this mod lacks. Logs etc.

It works fine on my 3.8.x boards.

We use the FULL modification from StopForumSpam.com, too, and it works really great! We've upgraded our forum through to 3.8.4 with no problems at all with the official mod, and I highly recommend it to other boards. It includes a searchable log as well as a way to report banned spammers back to the StopForumSpam.com website database from within the AdminCP panels so that OTHER boards don't get plagued with these spammers, too. If NO ONE used the official modification to report spammers then half-useful mods such as this one become even less useful over time.

Not true, friend. If you read the developer's installation instructions on the first page, the vbStopForumSpam modification states:

Installed. Thanks.

Is there by any chance a way to compare existing users already registered on my forum with the spam database and get a report out of which ones I could do with deleting?
