I will be completely removing it from my server and never will I use this mod.

I have uninstalled this mod due to this: Message from your site,

Sorry

Due to abuse by certain people, we are currently limiting API signups to members of the forum. We are sorry that we have had to take this course of action but we hope to have things back to normal shortly

What the heck does this mean?

So, even if you have an API key, vbStopforumSpam site no longer checks for spammers unless you join their forums?

Regards,
Badger
