Problems with spambots spamming forum
#1
Having only had my forum active for a few months, I've suddenly become flooded with many registrations of spam users and spam bots. they register, and post spam ads for pornography all over my forum. I have checked into the registration settings and all the spambot countermeasures are enabled. I even looked at the registration page to make sure, and it does show up. I'm not sure what else I can do, other than disabling automatic posting and restricting all registrations to admin activation, which I'm not sure I want to do.

Thank you!

Make every post regulated as for example you can make all posts of new registered users checked by a moderator or admin before being published.

Its a good opinion but it only works big forums. New forums can get disliked by the members if each and every post is regulated.

Build a strong sense of community that will work better.

Banned them. I mean the spam users. Every post get it checked first then make it publicly viewable. But its for large forum sites.

For small forums you have to regulate your content. Employ some moderators because its a huge job.

Aside from the restrictions from the settings of the forum it is recommended to have a regular moderator in which always monitor the activities within the forum.
