I just did that finally. I banned their IP too. But they keep coming back. There seems to be no stopping them. Also they seem to be able to post links even though the system doesn't allow it. They must have some hacking software that can post links even if the forum doesn't allow it. Really weird.

Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkI told you don't ban by ip because it could be an internet café, a hotel, a hostel, an airbnb, coffee shop, restaurant, library, airport, etc. then a legitimate member can not access the forum as happened to me on one occasion.
Look if you ban by ip they can just use a VPN. Real dumb to ban an ip address.
Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkThis forum needs urgently DAILY moderation, spam should be removed within 24 h.
Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkWhat other choice do I have? Some spammers are posting hundreds of posts with some program. The only way to stop them is to block their IP.

Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkDon't you have it set up so that you have to approve any new members first five posts? You could make a rule that any new member has to make a meaningful introduction and that they have to answer other members questions before they are "approved". This would thwart most of your spammers.
Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkIf you block their IP they will show up with another IP. If you cannot interrupt them otherwise, OK, block the IP but only for a week or so. There are so many kind of spammers, you cannot really block them all. Hopeless. The most important thing you have to do as an admin or mod is to control your forum DAILY at least one time - and to remove any kind of spam quickly. Sometimes I get the feeling HA-moderators are only showing up once a week or so and this is by far too long. Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkWinston! My son!

Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkI vote we make Cornfed a moderator because he's right on top of this. He's here all the time anyway can could effectively manage this. Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkOK so there are of course more spammers. Why can't something be done about this?
Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkYes but it's 3 posts that have to be approved. Not 5. Some people don't want to make an introduction. That's not gonna make a difference anyway. The spammers will still submit their posts. You won't see them of course unless you go to the Latest 100 topics page. Remember? I can't control that. Some guys here go to that page and see the spam in the moderation queue and complain. Not much I can do about that. They can just go to the Active Topics page if they don't like that. search.php?search_id=active_topics Check out my FUN video clips in Russia and Female Encounters of the Foreign Kind video series and Full Russia Trip Videos!

I'm removing them. But not everyday. I don't know how people get everything done everyday. There's too much to keep up with. There's an endless amount of things to do online. I can only get a fraction done everyday. I have no idea how others manage. Check out my FUN video clips in Russia and Female Encounters of the Foreign Kind video series and Full Russia Trip Videos!

Re: Report spammers here, please include profile linkNot so. Office work is finite and easy to manage. When I had an employer, I got everything done everyday usually. Office work is not that hard to get done or keep up with. It's not an infinity like the internet. Also before the internet I always had plenty of extra time for reading and daydreaming everyday and no one to talk to.
