Unable To Post?

Postby [George] on Fri Jun 15, 2007 9:09 pm

It's part of a PHPBB Mod that prevents bot spamming, you shall wait those minutes, because posts are supossed not to be faster than 2-4 minutes between them, anyway, I don't know the quantity of minutes that are set for the protection.

Indeed.Its a cool MOD that prevents spamming but I would suggest they also put the MOD that denies access to memberslist,usergroups to guests...It can be found in the mods section at PHPBB

The spam delay is 15 seconds on this forum, which isn't that long really lol.

For actual bots that register on the forum, that has now gone down to 0 since the Anti Bot Question MOD was installed.

I thought about limiting access to the members list before, but decided against in the end as the clan websites listed is helpful information and also helps to keep the Nightfire sites listed in search engines.
