porn spam
« on: November 13, 2008, 02:08:38 PM »
there has to be a way to filter these scumbags before they are able to post this crap.
some sort of security measures need to be implemented.

new members should have to pass some sort of mod filter before allowing them to post graphic nudity etc.

I haven't mastered the art of mind reading....I think Tyler has though.
Hopefully he can come through with something.

Unfortunately they have increased their attack on SBG the last couple of days. I'm looking into better ways to block these batards without making it harder for new members who want to post correctly.

Tyler: I own/run a political website and periodically they nail me. Thank God for my web designers. But it costs me a ton. U may need to go to a different log in for new members with letters and numbers so that it cant be done via computer.

Hey guys, it looks like there was a security issue with the version of the forum that I was running.  They released a patch and I installed it, so I'm hoping this cuts down on the spammers.  If not, I'll increase the requirements for registration.

Having never run a web site,, (I don't have enough time or desire, so thank you to those who do) there must be a filter you can use. The one I saw listed all the porn descriptions you can think of, so can you block that type of post?

Thanks for your attention to this, i didn't mean to imply that efforts weren't already underway to deal with it.
this is a great site and the mods are doing a great job as well
