Forum Protection
 
Hi,

I run a racing simulations forum which is currently getting the odd new registrant who is posting pictures of dead bodies.

The reason is because I banned a user a few weeks ago and reporting him to his ISP, he's a member of a vBulletin forum which is called 'General Mayhem' who are basically a load of 12 year olds who think pictures of dead children, decapitated men and ass 'stretching' are 'funny'.

This started a one-sided 'forum war' (in their words). We haven't done anything to them, and the only thing I've done to retaliate is to report each person who's done it (involving lots of international calls).

This morning we got hit again. No admins were around.

What I want to give Super mods is:

Ability to close forum.
Ability to view forum while closed.
Ability to close new registrations.
Ability to prune all of users posts.
Ability to full-ban.
Ability to add e-mail and Ip's to ban lists.

Any help you can give is very much appreciated, as Jelsoft don't seem particuarly interested in enforcing their own terms and conditions, it looks like we have to fight this one off ourselves.

You might want to make some trustworthy users admins but install less admincp hack.

Why not ban the IP addresses of the trolls?

Tim Wheatley 05-28-2003 03:56 PM

Because they're forum has a 'few' members, they don't know we're registered there (as we haven't posted anything, but need to be registered to see what they're planning) and they launch multiple user attacks all at once.

Plus as it says above, no admins were around. We have Admins in Denmark, England and South Africa. Since this happened we've added an Australian though.
