I have noticed a surge in spammers lately, and they are getting more creative. Image verification is being handled, another little thing I use where you pick custom questions - that is being passed. They are even using avatars and other customizations to make the account appear real... Then a couple of days later - boom, tons of junk posts.
Cleaning them up is easy thanks to that script (one touch ban and clean - hopefully someone continues the development for it). My question for those out there are how do you battle spammers? What ways have you found to be most effective? I have seen random posts where this question is partially covered. Just wanted to survey the community. |

I have a set of IP addresses and email addresses on the sites I admin that I have banned. Spamming is very very low for me. It prevents about 99% of my issue before I see it.
