I just wanted to ask something about this fantastic mod.
On my forum we allow unregistered guests to post in certain forums. (It uses a captcha system) and I do believe this mod is responsible for catching those spam attempts, and auto deleting them. (Even tho they are NOT registering or attempting to)
Every once in awhile we get a legit message that goes to moderation (as I want it to) but the 100's of others (all spam) never make it to moderation and are deleted automatically.
The footer stats in the WGO box indicate that:
392 Spammers Denied Registration
959 Spammy Posts Automatically Moderated
One of those unexpected happenings I noticed this mod is doing.
Fantastic work.....lol.....it is this mod doing that right?
