Can someone make a plugin to delete account and their threads/posts (or better yet...execute purge spammer on them) based on a users first post, and their content... keywords/phrases with options to add to it in ACP?

3 settings:
-Enabled/disabled
-Words/phrases separated by comma
-Maximun posts to check - if users has more than X posts, the check is ignoerd to prevent false-positves. 99% of spammers are recently registered users.

UPDATE:
v1.1: Added a setting for ban reason

If a phrase/word is detected, the thread/post is not created + the user gets automatically banned.

Known issues: The subject is even checked at thread replays. Too lazy to check if it's new post or new thread.

I tested it a bit and it is working.

UPDATE:
v1.2: Added check on post edit.
Added a setting to choose the action taken.

UPDATE:
v1.3: Fixed some bugs
Added a new custom error template
Added setting for custom ajax error for quick replay

Thank You!!!!
How can i test it without banning myself? I am not sure if it bans IP/account/etc.

You mean it just rechecks the thread title on a new post? That seems no biggie.

Is there anyway to switch to just block a post VS block a ppost and ban user? I am assuming from looking at the code that to deny banning a user, and just block a user, to comment out the first line in this block?

            if (stristr($message, $phrase) || stristr($subject, $phrase)){
                ban_user($mybb->user['uid']);
                error_no_permission();
            }

EDIT:
If i add this original file to my plugins directory, i do not see it listed in my plugins available. Is it suppose to be elsewhere?

Create a test account . It bans the account only. Not sure if there is any internal function to ban by IP.

Exactly that. Not a big deal...

If you comment "ban_user" call, it will only block the post/thread.

You must name the plugin "auto_ban.php". I should had attached it. I updated my last answer with the file attached.

Nice. Thanks.

Another question regarding the page they go to. In case of false positives i want the user to know they are being flagged as spam. The no error permission gives little info. Is there a way to add a box that gets inserted to above the editor like so
[attachment=37675]

I tried getting the answer from "no links allowed" plugin whihc does just this

$plugins->add_hook("datahandler_post_validate_thread", "atuo_ban_trigger");

$plugins->add_hook("datahandler_post_validate_post", "auto_ban_trigger");

function auto_ban_trigger(){
    global $mybb;
    
    if ($mybb->settings['autoban_enabled'] == 0){
        return false;
    }
    
    if ($mybb->user['postcount'] < $mybb->settings['autoban_minposts']){
        $message = $mybb->get_input('message');
        $subject = $mybb->get_input('subject');
        
        $phrases = explode(',',$mybb->settings['autoban_words']);
        foreach ($phrases as $phrase){
            $phrase = trim($phrase);
            if ($phrase == ''){
                continue;
            }
            if (stristr($message, $phrase) || stristr($subject, $phrase)){
                //ban_user($mybb->user['uid']);
               // error_no_permission();
                $post->is_validated = false;
                $post->set_error(sprintf("Your post has been marked as spam, and notified admins and     mods. ", "Auto-Block"));

            }
        }
    }
} 

But it takes you to a white page. 

Here is the code for the plugin of no links allowed

Apparently a user above the post count still gets blocked.

I blocked http:// for users with less than 2 posts...and i have 600+ posts, and get blocked as well when i post that string.

I was getting the posts count from another index that didn't exist, that's why the "Max posts" settings wasn't working. Download the file again.

Let me check how error_nopermissions function is done, to create something similar with a custom template... maybe tomorrow I will check it.

thanks

I've just released a new version. I've added a custom template so you can modify it as you want.

After you update the plugin, you will find a new template under "global templates" called "auto_ban_error_page". It's an exact copy of the "no permissions" page, but you can change it as you wish...

Please follow these steps for updating:
1. Download 1.3 version.
2. Backup your plugin configs.
3. Uninstall 1.2 version.
4. Replace auto_ban.php with new version.
5. Install it.
6. Restore your plugin settings.
