thanks for this - working beautifully and catching dozens (or hundreds) of unwanted registration attempts daily

I haven't updated this resource, but you can update yours and add TOR exit nodes.

any way to restrict it to only one country? my forum is basically india focused. thanks!

update: i guess this works: (ip.geoip.country ne "IN")!

Rule seems to work great so far! I don't see any reason why I can't also block this folder: /misc/contact

Do I need to write a whole new rule, or is there a way to say "OR" like maybe....

{"https://domain.com/register/" "https://domain.com/misc/contact"}

i assume this should work? (ps: i am excluding all countries except india in this)

(ip.geoip.country ne "IN" and http.request.full_uri contains "https://broadbandforum.co/register/") or (ip.geoip.country ne "IN" and http.request.full_uri contains "https://broadbandforum.co/misc/contact")

cloudflare has a pretty nice rule maker. very easy to customize.

i imagine bracket placement can be changed to shorten the code by putting OR between the two URLs? would need some testing though.
