You can delete it in there.
There is nothing there except "ACP_CAT_MODS" which is disabled.

Re: SPAM even though registration is closed

I keep deleting every day, and they keep spamming the next. Can I install a captcha to disallow the ones already registered to post?

It is taking down my server every hour as it exceeds the 75,000 db limit. :cry: I'm not sure what to do at this point to make it all stop.

SPAM even though registration is closed

So, I have the Q&A CAPTCHA but my registration is closed. I continue to get SPAM bots posting all over the place.

I recently updated to the latest. 3.1.8.

Any help would be great to get rid of SPAM for good.

updating to latest

Hi, I was constantly getting SPAM on my forums and so today I decided to update my forum to the latest. I guess I am doing it wrong because I thought I would start fresh with a fresh download and import my old database. I'm looking for some help. Here's what I've done: -installed 3.1.8 via FTP and r...

Re: spam problems on board after fixes

Yes, and google doesn't come up with it. If you know a better question to ask, I'd love to hear it.

Re: spam problems on board after fixes

Ok, well I am still getting hammered with them daily since I have posted this. I changed my Q&A question and they are still pouring in. Any other suggestions you can think of?

Re: spam problems on board after fixes

Referring to the Q&A question: Why the heck is it listed in the topic for combating spam then as a recommendation as a good example using characters? I think that is pretty misleading for people trying to set it up!

I have updated the Q&A question and deleted inactive users.

spam problems on board after fixes

Hello, I continue to have spam problems on my board even after I have taken measures to correct them. I use the Q&A for registration with hard questions. I also took out -12 time zone registrations. This hasn't seemed to be effective at all, as spam continues every day. What other suggestions ar...

Re: can't post a new topic

All fixed, thanks!
