Some quick spam stats

#1 Post by webfork »

Andrew may not be as active on the forums or in posting entries anymore, but he is definitely busy behind the scenes. Since March 6th, 2011, Andrew has banned 33 accounts and there have been 200 spam denied posting. Me and usdcs have been making a dent as well, but we're way below his numbers.

Thanks Andrew.

Couldn't agree more with joby's (non spam) comment!

You are welcome! :D

To other mods: I have gotten tired by banning spam accounts individually. So I simply disapprove the posts, and purge the spam accounts on a weekly basis using the "Prune user" function in the control panel.

Currently still working on an anti-spam module for entry comments based on IP address.
