Guys, read post # 7 in this thread... the author's official supported version is now in this thread: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=248042

If you're going to get support it's going to be in that thread.

People who have installed this mod - have you found that it helped cut out the spammers registering on your site?

bplinson 01-12-2011 03:40 PM

It has stopped 99% of the ones hitting my site.

My forums are huge and we were dying from a deluge of spammers. It's the single best thing we've ever installed and I'm gonna donate $200, which is probably a cheap-out considering how it has lifted our mod team's spirits.

My boards are 3.8.5.

The only thing is we upped the number of links n00bs could post because they love to post pics and img links seem to count.

Wow, thanks for that. I will be waiting anxiously :)

This mod is great, its helped my forum a lot. In the last few weeks my forum has been bombarded with spammers, i installed this mod 2 days ago & just 1 spammer has got in...

Thanks a lot GlowHost

Im using:
v1.2.8 with 3.8.6 Patch Level 1

I installed this mod a month ago and spammers are still able to register. So I took a further step: I banned GMAIL email accounts for new registrations and that slowed the spammers down a lot.

The spammers are still getting through the registration process although it's not a bad as it was. Is there any way to stop these spammer idiots?

BTW, I recently (about a month ago) updated VB from 3.5.3 to 3.8.4 and that's when the spammers started FLOODING in. When we are using VB 3.5.3, with captcha and NOSPAM! running, it stopped them all.

Glowhost are you planning to also update this release to version 2.0?

GlowHost.com 02-11-2011 05:18 AM

Hi,

Version 2.0 will be for vBulletin 4.0+ only.

Unfortunately no, we find its a better choice to make code for current versions and systems than trying to do that for older stuff. It becomes harder to debug working backwards and for older software, that is why almost nobody does it (for long.) Any other releases for 1.x will be for any security releases otherwise development has stopped on it and is no longer supported.

Sorry really wanted this to work, unfortunately I have had to uninstall it

3.8.4 PL 2 using version 1.2.0 . Parse syntax errors after posting. Installed 1.2.8 - more Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_BOOLEAN_ after logging out.

Probably should really upgrade my board to 4.0 anyway.
