Ok I think I have it set up correctly, so let me rephrase the question. If I am the first one reporting a spammer, in my case it as reported but after he was registered on the forum. So in the rare occasion that I am the first reporting a spammer, do I have to delete the spammer manually? Or did I miss configure something? Currently the software has been rejecting allot of spammers, so not sure what I need to do differently.
One other question, I added another hack that simply will ask questions upon registration in addition to the re-capcha. So I decided to test it to make sure than people are able to register. I used the bogus user name and a common email. I forgot about this hack and sure enough it flagged me as a spammer. Will my ip now be listed on the database of spammers?
