It has email addys, usernames and IPs.
What about to let the amdin choose in ext options ? Email, name, IP, both, all ?
An let the admin the duration of ban ? Like x "hours" or" "days" ? An ampty box for a number beside a dropdown menu with "hours" and " days" ?
Trying to keep it as simple as possible. Saying that there is now an option in the ACP to allow the banning of a spammer by IP and is hard coded for one hour. Images updated, github updated. Where the heck is 3.1.4-RC1?

This extension helps to prevent spam across the forum, so thanks to you Rich and it's useful! :)
No sign of a forum I owned.

Thank you,

Stop forum spam may very well have been down. It's been known to happen before.

I have been in contact with the owner of stop forum spam. He will be submitting this, or a variant of this extension, to the database under the stopforumspam user name. So locking for now.
