| Brandon | New Moderator(s)?The poll has been up for a week or so, and we don't seem to have a definative answer. So my question is, do we need new moderators? New ones?
My idea: Monthly poll to "elect" the moderator for the month. | 2009-01-21 | 2:40 PM |
| Todd | Re:New Moderator(s)?Sounds like a good idea. Though there really isn't much to moderate. No one really gets out of line. | 2009-01-21 | 5:18 PM |
| Brandon | Re:New Moderator(s)?Well no name *cough*jason*cough* likes to reply to spam bots, before moderators get it it, and it annoys me when I have to delete both posts. Ideally the moderators would have spam deleted before anyone else sees it. | 2009-01-21 | 6:31 PM |
| Todd | Re:New Moderator(s)?I have a plan that might stop spam for good. Heard of "stopforumspam.com"? I'm planning on tying an ".htaccess" file into their database to stop any banned IP from viewing your site. | 2009-01-21 | 9:26 PM |
| jasonwoodland | Re:New Moderator(s)?Didn't you see my pm? I'm trying to make a point. Good, delete before i see it then! | 2009-01-22 | 2:19 AM |
| Brandon | Re:New Moderator(s)?Todd that seems like a good idea, just send me the file and I can upload it. | 2009-01-22 | 4:22 PM |
| Todd | Re:New Moderator(s)?It ties into mod_rewrite though. I think 1&1 has it installed so it shouldn't be a problem. What it'll do is find a way to tie it into the StopForumSpam.com database. I'll send something to you soon.
Oh and I'll upload what I have done for Titan. There are a couple little quirks but it works well for the most part. The FB port was smoother than I thought. :) | 2009-01-22 | 5:30 PM |
| Re:New Moderator(s)?Spam? I come here pretty often and I dont think I ever seen a spam post here. | 2009-01-22 | 9:44 PM |
| pharoah | Re:New Moderator(s)?We don't get too many, but my understanding (not being a moderator) is that they're a pain to delete and have to be done individually. I like Todd's blacklist idea. | 2009-01-23 | 10:15 AM |
| Brandon | Re:New Moderator(s)?The problem isn't so much spam in the forum, we have had maybe 20 since I took over, but Spam Users, we had 101 users and I just cleaned it down to just over 20 that are actual users. The database gives each user a number, and our last real user, ikongui is like number 574, so we've had a lot of spam sign-ups. | 2009-01-23 | 11:31 AM |
