Is Bot: Registration Time Check · **Released**: 12-29-2006

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.

I don't know what I've done without this mod. It seem as though they don't bother one of my sites anymore but now their attacking one of my other sites.....good thing I have this mod installed there as well.

Isn't it awesome? I know I've made posts about this mod and I can't say enough. I catch 3 to 10 during each night with this mod.... while I'm sleeping the spammers around the world are at work.

Installed. Great mod. :up:

Has stopped 4 bots already...

My only suggestion would be to add the attempted registrants IP to the email.

Other than that. Thanks!

This mod does great work, absolutely a life saver. However, is there a way to STOP the emails?

Goto the plugin manager find the hook on "register_addmember_process" by "Is bot" and change

PHP Code:


			
vbmail($vbulletin->options['webmasteremail'], $isbot_subject, $isbot_message, true);

to

PHP Code:


			
//vbmail($vbulletin->options['webmasteremail'], $isbot_subject, $isbot_message, true);

That should turn off emails.

Now I have a question to ask the author, would it be possible to make it so emails are only sent if the users emails aren't blocked?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
