very strange.. never had a problem like this before upgrade to 2.1.2

Try going over settings for whatever mod you have installed will save you the time making unneeded posts

dougdirac 06-22-2013 02:54 PM

I've been happily running 2.0.2 for a while now. Any reason to upgrade to 2.1.2? Any reason not to upgrade?

If the version you are running works in stopping bots then don't update

dougdirac 06-23-2013 08:06 PM

Yeah, that's how I'm leaning. The main feature I'd like added is to be able to Spam-O-Matic zap spammy threads at the forum display level, instead of having to open those threads and and select the individual post.

Totally brilliant

Thank you so much. Got 2 spammers within seconds.:D

That's not a bug, it's part of Spam-O-Matic. In the settings you have to state how many url links are allowed per post, and if someone puts more links in that you've stated then no matter what their post count their post goes into moderation.

The thing to do is decide how many links you want members to put in their post. If they go over that amount then their post will go into moderation.

Have you set S-O-M to auto moderate?

ForceHSS 06-26-2013 07:15 PM

Set 0 for mod urls in the settings for this mod

Do you know if this MOD will be made to work with vB5?

No idea but there are other mods out there that just work as well for vb5

I have been using this one for a while - that is holding back my upgrade to vB5. Do you suggest a good vB5 alternative?

ForceHSS 06-26-2013 10:03 PM

If I was you I would not upgrade to vb5 for some time as there are way too many bugs in it. For me I never will don't like the look or the options. By the time vb5 is stable they will be plenty of mods to use on it so best to wait

Beermonster 06-28-2013 06:07 PM

When I try and install it I get an error
XML Error: Invalid character at Line 151

Any ideas?

ForceHSS 06-28-2013 08:03 PM

Strange have never seen a bug with this being installed check all files uploaded to correct place also make sure you are unzipping the file above with winrar

This is what's holding you back from an upgrade to vB5?!?!? This would be on the second or third page of issues that are holding me back.

vB4, XenForo, or perhaps IPB.

Mojosoft 07-05-2013 10:11 PM

I installed this mod a week ago on 4.2.1 and it works GREAT! Almost 400 spammers stopped in 6 days!!

New Joe 07-08-2013 10:35 AM

Well for 2 and a half years my RSS feeds robot hasn't worked.
I had the first original version 1 of this mod installed.
Today I updated this mod to the lastest version and now my RSS feeds are now working....

Thanks it is currently working well but don't suddenly want to it to not work due to problems with old URL's

to update do I just download new version and update and overwrite via VB plugin manager

revaxmedia 07-11-2013 06:37 AM

This mod is absolutely amazon, within 72 hours it had stopped over 3,000 registrations and posts, absolutely amazing. They are still hitting my site hard but Spam-O-Matic is holding them off, well done guys. I recommend taking the time to get an Akismet and StopForumSpam API as this stops more getting through the net (some do)

GiaNNi 07-13-2013 09:53 AM

This mod is amazing... I had to enter my forum each morning to delete posts for 30 minutes... now I can breakfast with no stress :)

Haponing 07-16-2013 06:12 AM

Will this work with vBulletin 4.2.0 Patch Level 3?

DemOnstar 07-16-2013 06:50 AM

Works with 4.2.1 on localhost, so not the best place to test..

Will go live soon...

Thanks...

It works fine in vB Suite 4.2.1, tested.

rharbison 07-17-2013 03:43 AM

Has something suddenly broken. In the last 2 days, I've had 8,000 new members. Of course, 7,998 are spammers. Why isn't Spam-O-Matic catching these?

Here's a tiny bit of the log file:

Lots of obvious spammers, what's wrong?

jcgriff2 07-17-2013 06:49 AM

They got through because they are not listed at SFS

A quick search of some of the records at SFS returns -0- entries for IP or email

Only the 2 in red were tagged by SFS; the others are not found:
Code:

120.43.9.10

All IPs come back to China.

You should try a second layer like - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=289463

We have both installed.

There were only two of them ips missing and some of the emails from sfs db I have now added all of them

jcgriff2 07-17-2013 06:48 PM

Thanks for adding them.

I thought that since the user name was dynamically allocated that the IPs may be never-ending as well.

We use & rely on the SFS plug-in; the other one simply aids in the process.

Iari 07-19-2013 10:16 AM

Its a realy usefull addon
But what i missing is a check, if the ip is an actually tor exit node

Anyone know how to fix this,

Just installed and I got this message. I see the various responses to this but I am sure I uploaded the files correctly. I uploaded the contents of the Upload folder, not the directory itself. I browsed through each file in the Upload folder and there is a matching item on the server in the same place (including the file in the XML subfolder). Not sure what to try next. Any suggestions? I am getting killed by spam and would love to try this.
