Hi there

on our forums guests are allowed to post. Our forums are moderated, so all these posts will never be seen by anyone but the administration. We have a high amount of unknown spammers with posts in many different languages getting more and more big. By the moment I am using Fassim Anti Forum Spam and Goodbyespammer. But I fear these are not the good tools for guests. So my question, "Bad Behavior" ought to be the better choice for these unknown spammers?

And, do you know a possibility to find out which user is a human being and who's a robot? There are still some users from whom I really have no idea, what they are. How can I find out more about them? Is Stopforumspam.com a way to learn more ?

Is there a possibility to enter all this spam to any database to get rid of spam?



Installing mybb plugin for recaptcha would help.
Hello again, hi Trader

Thank you for your answer @ Trader. I am going to try it too...

Meanwhile I installed and activated Stopforumspam.com. Logging is activated in the settings but there is no file called sfs_log.php in my root MyBB directory.

Then I followed the instructions on Bad Behavior and uploaded the upload folder to my forums root directory. I tried to activate it with the ACP plugin manager but there is no Plugin Bad Behavior under my Plugins. Why not? Our Forums are talking English and German, so it ought to be there?

Anyone any idea?

Thank you in advance for any answer.

edit: Bad Behavior is back ... I did something wrong, I uploaded the whole folder upload, now I tried it with the contents of the upload folder ... so .. Plugin Bad Behavior can be installed and activated Undecided
