Multiple Accounts and Spammers

(1/2) > >>

Skhilled:
Multiple accounts with the same IP address will not be allowed and all accounts associated with the same IP will be banned. There has been a string of spammers doing this lately. All email addresses and IP's will be reported to Honeypot and StopForumSpam as well as their ISP and hosting company.

Any account not activated within 15 days will also be deleted.

Any accounts without any post and have URLs to a non-SMF forum will be watched or banned...depending on the URL. Please do not post SEO, etc. sites in your sig or anywhere else.

You've been warned.

I use StopforumSpam on my website and it is great. I get the odd one that I am not sure about but mainly that is IP. Or I might get simon123 blocked because of a listing for Simon. If I don't know and something not right I just don't accept. I now the odd one genuine don't come back because of the block and time wasted, but what the hell.

I think it is a good idea.  :thumb:
