Link -Post-Rules
These rules prevent users who do not meet the requirement from creating links in various places.
The Link -Post-Rules condition's are set in the ACP and include:
- Minimum Number of Posts
- Minimum Number of Likes
- Minimum Like : Post Ratio (This should prevent many users from creating pointless posts, just to increase their post count)
- Minimum Registration Days
Stop Banned Words
Stop posts / threads being created with banned words. These words can be in the title of the thread or the content of the post/thread. This prevents the human spammer from using their usual spam content (copy / pasted from word/txt). The human spammer can vary what they write, but after going through the hassle of not being able to create a real link / sneaky link of any sort (see below), most will just give up.
Yes, my Stop Human Spam is 1.2.7Hmm, that's strange..
What does the version say for you Stop Human Spam (Go to ACP >> Home >> List Add ons)
It should be 1.2.7
Yes, I am using XF 1.2 RC1Also, are you using xenForo 1.2?
Moderate Banned Word Content
Instead of stopping the thread / post containing the banned word being created, moderate the content (moderation can not be applied to conversations)
I don't know which addon did it. I have StopCountrySpam, StopHumanSpam and FoolBotHoneyBot installed. I think it might be StopHumanSpam that made this person's registration require manual approval (I don't even have manual approval checked in the regular registration settings but it's showing under Stop Human Spam)Which addon are you talking about?
For FoolBotHoneyPot, there are no false positives... so bots just don't get through (100% of the bots are stopped at the door) ... no manual approval / rejection
For CustomImgCapthca, there is no manual approval / rejections (the human /bot can re-attempt registration)
For StopCountrySpam, there is no manual approval / rejections (if the country is blocked from registering... it's blocked)
For any of the APIs in AnyApi, the users are stopped at the door (don't use APIs you don't trust)
For StopHumanSpam, false positives are possible when creating threads/posts. If a user accidental uses a banned word, their thread/post can go into moderation
For the banned words / banned titles, there is an option for this in the StopHumanSpam settings:
If you are using FoolBotHoneyPot ... I wouldn't expect to see many spam issues (all of the bots will be stopped at the door), so the only issues you should ever see are human spam issues (which are more rare), and StopHumanSpam should catch these
