If you read announcements on vb or ipb they both have acknowledged ways to firght spam in their announcements recently, we still have yet to see one from xenforo...
This is very frustrating to me as I was hit by major spam yesterday and today. In total I was hit by 15 spam registrations which managed to bypass the Captcha... they Posted a whole bunch of hardcore gay porn, and even managed to PM members porn. I deleted the PM's through phpmyadmin, there were a good 20 PMs sents out, and a few of them were read by the members. It was easy to take care of posts thanks to the spam cleaner.
Although I did install the StopForumSpam mod, they were still able to register. I find it very annoying that xenforo dosent have the Q and A's... im sure that would do a better job along with Captcha or even better than captcha because of Captcha getting cracked.
I hope the devs can come up with something in a short period of time to address the spam. Those of you who didnt have to deal with spam recently wouldnt know but its really stressing.. specially when its gay porn being mass posted and Pm'd to members, Made me want to close my board for good. Please dont post some rude reply or something of no use which I see happening here on xenforo alot because you didnt have to go through the **** I had to go through yesterday and today.
SO please add the Q and A's field for registration.
Thanks.
