Re: Stop Forum Spam!
That is a good link. We use that on the site, I admin. We manually validate all new members, though. Got to have the owner look up that add-on,
Just a mention, but we get sleepers. They register an un-listed IP (unlisted @StopForumSpam) and then pop up months later.
I'm also seeing intelligent spammers, at a major tech site, who should know better. They post related links, in the help forums. It's spam disguised as helpful links. Not as bad as Ugg boots, but.......

Re: Stop Forum Spam!
I do that too, tho not real often.
At least that way one doesnt have to waste the spam post.
