PHPBB3 Help

Post by RoboCop »

Hello my friends from here and down under cannot seem to fix the site I got. The problem is the regulars trying to register, like my friend from Blockley who's got a freeserve email account isn't valid and denied for it to be registered. And we been trying to find the spambot blocker for BB3 but they have no clue how to tackle that...

KeyCaptcha - http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/keycaptcha
Anti-Spam ACP - http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/mod/anti_spam_acp

Both of these are active on these Forums, and so the few spam bots that do come through are normally flagged after making their first post. If we find them, we simply use the tool provided to One-Click Ban, and it sends their details to the StopForumSpam database :)
Anyone already in that database can be stopped from registering by the Anti-Spam ACP :)

If you need any more help, drop a reply here, send me a PM, or drop me an email - madgeorge[at]cic-clan.com :)
