Spam protection added thanks to AMI

Postby tor lives » Wed Dec 24, 2014 6:39 pm

Hi guys,
Thanks to some very valuable assitance and guidance offered by Dave Harvey over at AMI, I have now installed additional spambot protection that requires a simple Q&A process as part of A/CAM forum registration procedure. This should go along way towards eliminating the 50+ spam forum entry applications I receive each day, (the vetting of which is a very time-consuming and messy affair that, as we have seen, does not always protect the site or membership from spammers).
I would like to publicly thank Dave for his support with this issue....his goodwill, cooperation, and consideration is very much appreciated and will only serve to make A/CAM a better site.....Thanks heaps David!!!
Regards

Looks like the additional layer of spam protection is working. Normally overnight I have 20-30 spam forum registrations waiting....this morning not one :D
Thanks again David

Four days now and not one spambot attack :D
I am sure Adam is as pleased as I am to now not be getting the 40-50 daily spam registration email alerts.
For perspective genuine A/CAM Forum applicants...the answer is "Boeing 747"
