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.

One more idea for this:

How bout the option to add Groups who receive the email too?

This is such a great mod I think it deserves a consideration for being part of the core vB.

I left it at 15 seconds, and during the night, caught MORE.

The following user name with email address was blocked by the Is Bot mod: deosaest - deosaest@cashette.com (1 seconds transpired)

The following user name with email address was blocked by the Is Bot mod: presley - presley@meta.ua (2 seconds transpired)

The following user name with email address was blocked by the Is Bot mod: DosugXT - dosug-x@nm.ru (1 seconds transpired)

WOW I am so happy, these were getting by before and I am running 3 other mods to prevent spam but this one is catching them.

Nice mod. How long before the spammer applications start adding a delay though?
