Against spambot

by ARTA8SIMS » Wed Jun 10, 2009 1:33 pm

Here's my suggestion. How about changing the account activation type from email to admins since you guys might able to see the user's IP and their location. (Well on mines the ISP location appears on my admin panel, you know the google earth thing. Not sure how this one works tho)

Hope it helps. :)

I agree. if the account activation was changed from email to admin, it would (at the very least) deter them, and sure would stop all the useless accout registration/activations coming in from the same IP addresses.

I have decided to outright ban certain groups of ISP's, since they tend to be orginating from a certain spot, however I have to check EVERYBODY'S IP adress first, so that I don't lock anybody genuine out.

Should be fixed in the next 48 hours, please be patient.

I've now changed the activation settings.
