Someone in the 3.8 modifications forum is offering a lite version of your mod. I pointed out that stopping spammers via calls to the StopForumSpam.com database only works well because of forum feedbacks - something your full-featured mod does which the lite mod doesn't.

Nominated this for the MOTM, and would do so for the year if such an honor existed. As a suggestion, perhaps if you were to offer this mod in the 3.8 section then more people would be able to find your very cool and full-featured mod, and won't have to settle for less.

Seems that the confusion is around the fact that this mod is not specifically labeled for vB 3.8.. perhaps that is something that can be done to remove the confusion and prevent splintering the project.

I guess I copy just copy/paste the mode into the 3.8 forum as well.

... or people could just read :)

That "lite" version will offer you a very simple method but only 1/3 of the checks as each IP is limited to 5000 queries a day and it does no caching.

Ive dusted off Firebug and cut a huge chunk of code out in order to get 0.7 out the door ready to put that code back in for 0.75

I just created a copy of this mod in the 3.8 forums, lets see

they have to change all 3 things or they will be denied. then they just get submitted again.

The stopforumspam.com domain is down at the moment as the site owner forgot to renew the domain. Ive tried to contact him and just hope that hes reading his emails this morning.

EDIT: Looks like GoDaddy was at fault this time. If youre using GoDaddy, expect problems, for ever.

Does this translate to the mod is no longer functional with that web site any more? :confused:

Thanks

Its all back up and running. After he renewed the domain, godaddy changed all the site DNS to point to their advertising pages. That alone is a good enough reason to move your domains to a much more reliable and above-board company.

Warning, large image :)

This is a teaser for the 0.7 profile page. The drop down provides this list but I will be moving it to a tick list shortly

Ban & Cleanup (removes all posts / threads / PM / signatures / text fields in profile)
Delete User
Move to group
Ban IP

The large colour image has a toogle button to display the data in the cells or just the colour map, selectable in the options.

The rows in the "by relation" subnet data doesnt yet include the status on any cached spammer data. Refreshing the entire table could result in anywhere from a dozen to several hundred queries, so it will only be cached data if any is found. The red X shows a user already banned. Clicking on a user takes you to their profile. There will also be another table, which dispalys all that users posts, all posts "by relationship of subnet" as well.

Ive editted out some of the email and usernames to protect my test accounts :)
