Still loving this mod. The few spammers that get through are stopped dead in their tracks.

Why is this not automatically included as part of VB? If no-ones spam post appeared there would be a drop in spam attacks and attempts even from human spam posters.

Is there any solution to RSS feeds ending up in the moderation queue if the user is not logged in at the time? This is my only gripe with what is a superb modfication.

It would be good to see this project updated and moved to the VB 3.8 Forum.

Waynne,
Thanks for the feedback. I don't know what's different about 3.8, but I use this mod with the most up to date Vbulletin at all times and had never had problems with it. Should I just cross-post to the 3.8.4?

For the RSS question, sorry I'm not sure. I have done very little programming with the RSS bot and I'm not sure how you could check this status in the plugin.

I presume the RSS bot has a userid which shows as 0 posts all the time. I'll see if I can work out what needs to be done but I'm no coder.

Please do post this in the 3.8 forum this is the single most effective spam prevention mod I have ever used. Any attempts to spam are caught in moderation allowing us to ban or warn the users. Other systems just block the post and the spammers accounts remain active.

I don't think this plays by it's own rules. I set it to moderate posts by users with less than 4 posts only. It's moderating a user of mine with thousands of posts and not allowing him to post a bunch of links. what gives?

Edit: Note - this user is an RSS bot. My temporary workaround is making him part of the moderator usergroup. Hopefully this will fix the issue.

We just installed this on 3.8.4 and it appears to be working. I couldn't find anything like it in the 3.8 version forum. We were getting overrun with spam despite our human verification requirement, and it seems this will stop it dead in its tracks! Thank you, Tweakmonkey.

What about an upgraded version for VBulletin 4?

[Toopac]

Perfect,

I use a few choice keywords from the spam threads/posts that I have been getting, and I also have all threads/posts with URL's/Emails filtered too.

= ZERO SPAM, NONE, NULL

Excellent!

Thanks a lot man, this is what i was looking for. I would like to make a small donation for it, if you don't mind. Please tell me where I can do so.

Thanks again.

I just installed this, but if the spammer replies to a thread it will still send out e-mails to people who subscribed to the thread.

I installed this on 3.8.6 but no options appeared in vbulletin options... I refreshed the page, even tried from another browser, nothing... uninstalling.

Edit- Nevermind- found it under 'general settings' oops.

[BirdOPrey5]

hmmm, just not working for me... got a spam today that repeatedly mentioned 'iphone' and '.com' both of which are words to 'scan for' and it was posted to my forum anyway.
