I thought you meant that you wanted to tell it to users, not to let the mod work wit users as well. (thought you already managed to do that) Sorry for that.

You should ask the mod maker, he'll know best. Personally, I use a mod that when a user has less than x posts (you can decide the number) all posts with links or images (again, you can add more or choose only links for example) are automatically moderated posts first after which you can add them. Spam bots don't usually make more than about 10 posts, so after that it's free for users, in my opinion. I use this in combination with a mod that let's me instantly delete all posts, topics and ban the IP and username (everything is optional) with one click, so I can delete spam very fast as well. It works very well on my board, I don't get any spam at all anymore.

If you're interested, I could tell you which mods they are, otherwise, I'd ask the maker of the mod how to change this.

Good luck.
