Last Friday I randomly had 6,000 new registrations who posted a lot. One of the mods manually went through and spam cleaned as much as possible, it took hours. I then required manual approval for all new registrations. Today, I got 50+ email notifcations from users spamming via PM, which were accounts created on Friday. And today, hundreds more registered and are under approval. I disabled registration and also updated the registration question on Friday.
What's the best/fastest way to clean up these PM/registration/post spam of hundreds of people and how can I prevent them going forward? I've used XF for years and never had this issue until now.
Thanks.
