I will purchase a license at a later date...........however ATM my skills using a computer (compared to you folk) are negligible.

I've recently been upgraded to a Super Moderator on a vBulletin forum where our license holder is rarely, if ever, involved (IMO he has done some exceptional work in getting the forum off the ground.............but he's just not there anymore).

Our current (3) Admins are not able to put in a lot of effort to enhance our site.

Myself and one other are trying to do our best to keep our forum alive and thriving.

I thought that coming to the source would be the most effective way of learning how to achieve this.

I trust that those of you who read this understand my position......................i.e........We've got hundreds and hundreds of bots as 'members'......And I would like to know how to effectively deal with them....................'Cause nobody else will!

Cheers.
