Block India and China?

[Jonathan Long]

Best option to block China and India? Basically 99% of all spam is coming from there.

Do you have stop forum spam setup correctly? Only other options are ban IP ranges and possible addons that will do this.

 

[Jonathan Long]

Yup. Just want to block those entire countries.

Use iptables at the server level.

Alternatively, there are at least two addons which will block entire countries.

I use the addons mentioned above (XF2.2) and have had no problems with spammers....China, India, Russia, or otherwise. Our forum gets attacked daily and continuously. However, all of that crap is blocked....no one sees any of it other than in logs viewable only by admins.

These are great addons to consider, my opinion.
