[Completed] Anti-Spam Mods

[MJFletcher]

Admin, please install at least one of the mods from here: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=393503

Having the forum slammed with bot generated spam is going to drive people away and we're already far less active than we should be.

Agreed. Those things are getting really annoying.

FireGS is the only one that can upload the mods...we sent him some PM's hopefully he'll see this and get it fixed up. I don't have access to the server to do so.

Cool, as long as the man in charge has been made aware of the issue we're on the way to dealing with them. PM him about the other thread I started about the portal mod. The Portal is an easy tool for creating a front page that can be accessed by anyone that's given the privs for it.

no more phpbb. =)

phpbb mods are TERRIBLE to install..they take FOREVER and hopefully by the time you're done, it actually works.

with mybb, you simply transfer the files to the correct folders via ftp, go into the admincp and activate the plugin and bam, it's done....then you go into the settings to tweak it to you how you want.
