Any number of reasons. There are some options that if enabled and not properly set up will stop anyone from posting on the forum.

Start by disabling the option below and see if that fixes it (at least until you set it up correctly).

Hi ForceHSS,

I have installed this one mod where you have to confirm your email before the registration and u can't register if u don't confirm your email via given code. So far it's helping me a lot. I would say it brought down spammers from 100 in 12 hours time to 5-6 in 12 hours, however they are still that pass this option as well. If this gets hectic i will contact u for sure. If that okay for you :)

Thanks for your help.

dont know this is a bug or not.

when a thread submited, and the member edit the 1st post and put lots of link inside it, the thread get moderated.

me (admin), try to approve the thread using the moderation tools, but the status of the post still moderated, i have to approve the post from the admincp.

very strange.. never had a problem like this before upgrade to 2.1.2

I know what you are talking about but think this is a vBulletin thing

It would be great if any action at all - made by a mod on a post
(disapprove / approve / move ) would then cause the mod notification to go away,
but this was happening for me before this latest SOM update too.

Never have figured out why sometimes need to approve it the before moderation notice goes away - sometimes not :confused:

Try going over settings for whatever mod you have installed will save you the time making unneeded posts

I've been happily running 2.0.2 for a while now. Any reason to upgrade to 2.1.2? Any reason not to upgrade?

If the version you are running works in stopping bots then don't update

Yeah, that's how I'm leaning. The main feature I'd like added is to be able to Spam-O-Matic zap spammy threads at the forum display level, instead of having to open those threads and and select the individual post.

INSTALLED TODAY

Totally brilliant

Thank you so much. Got 2 spammers within seconds.:D

That's not a bug, it's part of Spam-O-Matic. In the settings you have to state how many url links are allowed per post, and if someone puts more links in that you've stated then no matter what their post count their post goes into moderation.

The thing to do is decide how many links you want members to put in their post. If they go over that amount then their post will go into moderation.

Have you set S-O-M to auto moderate?

Set 0 for mod urls in the settings for this mod

Do you know if this MOD will be made to work with vB5?

No idea but there are other mods out there that just work as well for vb5

I have been using this one for a while - that is holding back my upgrade to vB5. Do you suggest a good vB5 alternative?
