Spammers.
Posted: Fri Aug 05, 2022 12:31 am
Hi all moderators.
I noticed a couple of spammers have passed my watchful eye.
I have for quite some time, been activating new registrations and deleting spam registrations. They are quite easy to spot. I have to be a little careful, as I don't want to delete legitimate signups. This is getting quite tiresome, as I have to vet the accounts on an individual basis. Sometimes, I may get 100 spam signups in a week. I going to explore other anti spam options, like an external spam prevention service that hold a large database of email and IP addresses. This may be less effective than human intervention, leaving only a handful of posts to deal with weekly, but it will give me more time to work on more important aspects of Libera Dream.
I will keep you posted on any spam counter measures that I may try.
Cheers
Paul.
