QuickOldCar Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Was there ever a spam filter for the posts here? It seems like I see a lot of spam since the last server crashes. I'm sure something can be added to the forum. Minimum 1 approved post before including a url in a post? Blocking the common bad words?

requinix Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Registration CAPTCHA broke. It's disabled for now but they're trying to fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barand Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Moderation of first-time posts perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zane Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Moderation of first-time posts perhaps? That sounds like a PITA, but there is indeed a setting for it Moderate content of everyone in this group? YesNo until approved posts days since joining Enter 0 or leave blank in second field to not limit by days/posts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
requinix Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 "Until 1 post" would probably be fine. I wouldn't go for the "until X days" because I've seen spammers sign up days, even months in advance of their first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac_gyver Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 lol, spam in the spam filter thread ^^^. the GD based captcha works and should be use in the meantime. the complaint posts about the gd based captcha (from a member that had already written a couple of posts and never replied when asked a question about it and another member that never posted after the complaining post) were most likely from (the same) spammer(s) that just wanted an easier captcha.
