[staff] spam eaten.

Posted by kevboh on April 16, 2007, 9:10 a.m.

So if anyone saw the massive amounts of spam today, that's just another part of a community site. The offending spammer was banned and all of his posts were deleted.

If anyone is cool with it, I'm considering implementing a hardcoded blog limit of 1 per day.

This is a short blog, just wanted to let everyone know that the matter is taken care of.

Yeah, 1 blog per day…isn't that a rule anyway? Oh, I see…you plan on disabling blogging after you make one?

I watched the spam get eaten. Nice job to both you and DF. Thanks for taking care of that.

Kevboh good idea and make it so you can't submit a blog without 300 characters too. But maybe mods and admins can bypass that for like the short announcements not fit for the news.

I was about to say adding a limit to one blog per a day.

Also another limit should be you can't register for another account on the same IP within 24 hours.

Just a few ideas.

Isn't there actually a way to delete all posts made by one member?

I wonder if deleting their account would do that. It doesn't delete posts, though…so it may not work that way.

1 post per day seems very fair.
