Dealing with spammers
Posted: Sat Jan 02, 2016 3:22 am
On another forum I frequent we had an issue with spammers posting explicit pictures together with their links to porn sites.
As a result bb-code was disabled for new users until the fifth post.
This seems to have reduced the number of spammers.
So far I've only seen links from the spammers here, but there's a lot of them.
Would blocking new posters from posting links and pictures for a few posts be something worthwhile for this forum?
