This mod calculates the time it takes to go between these two pages:
  • /forum/register.php?do=register
  • /forum/register.php?do=addmember
The point is to try and prevent bots from registering at your forum when the time between the two pages is humanly impossible, assuming that humans actually take the time to complete the registration page.

Should a user be blocked from registering at your forum, an email will be sent to your vB webmasteremail address and the user will see the vB noregister phrase message, so no screenshot is necessary.

Question: Instead of blocking the user, can we get a PM telling us who the user is? Cause eventually they will just delay the bots.

Thanks.

Thanks, this add-on is great and saving me some 30 - 60 minutes a day in admin time which I spent deleting 'spam' members.

As simple as this is, it saves a TON of time and has stopped pretty much all automatic spam bots. Thanks a lot!

This mod is a blessing from the skies!

One question, though - any chance to disable the "user blocked" e-mails?

Just comment out the mail sending line in the plugin and you are good.

Oh I love those emails ! I would not disable it for a thousand dollars!
I have a filter which transfers all of them to a folder.
When I see that some of them is near the time limit: increase it.
From Ukraine and Poland: They are relatively slow.10-24 secs.
Russia: The best! 1-5 secs.

Tweaking the timer is not a too good idea. If you make it too long, you will start catching legit users. In other words be very very careful with it.

I'm guessing that's the line that starts with "vbmail".

Yeah, I enjoyed those e-mails at first as well (serves you right, spammers!), but then me and the mails have decided to part ways
