There seems to be a lot of new spamming activity on the site that's hard to hold in check. Is this the usual level, but not nipping it in the bud as quickly? Are there any ways on this version of phpBB to deter spamming?

OK, that slew of spam is all cleaned up. Now y'all need to get ready for another round and another and another. 'Tis the season.

I still don't get why Winston doesn't just set it up so the first post of a new member must be approved?

Oh.... and he/she is still not finished. That must be some pretty danged good coffee.
I've now just deleted every new member from Russia and then some. Hopefully, that will help.

Wow I just deleted a ton of Russian spam here. I blocked the IP's they were coming from too. The IP's were mostly the same, so it seems to be from the same source.
Maybe we should moderate every new user's first posts, but then they would experience a delay in seeing their posts appear.
For now, I'll change the humanizer question and see if that stops it.

And just so y'all know.... it will be spammy again this weekend as I have plans.
Goin' ghost hunting. I'll tell y'all about it when I return. That is if I can find a free topic that isn't all spammed up.

Where at?

Cool. Things were quiet while I was away.

It's getting hard to tell spammers and trolls apart from legitimate posters. Bumping old topics?
