[OzzModz] Registration Spaminator 2.2.0 Patch Level 1

[Otto Von Herunterhangen]

Had one that made a good try at it, thought you might want to see. Thus far no BOT accounts have gotten through. The reason I know is the users are migrating from another site, and I can match up the usernames of people coming though. No Spam accounts have gotten through yet.

Where can I find the spaminator log? I've given the administrator and moderator groups permission to view/clear it.

Nevermind, I was looking in the backend. It's in the navigation front end under 'Forums' for anyone else wondering.

Is this still available? On Xenforo says it "has been removed and is no longer available. The following reason was provided:"

I can't stop the spam on my forum no matter what I do.

It's available here.

Ok gonna give it a try soon!

12 months since last posted update. This thing still valid and working well?

Spam is a monster and A.i is making it so that I want to just close my forum and read books and booze it up all day.

Hi peeps.
There's a huge surge of spam registrations on my side.
All outlook.com and gmail.com emails. So it's not like I can ban those.
I mean if these are people getting paid I'd find it odd, if they are bots then the add-on could use an update maybe.
If it's something more sophisticated idk. But the problem is there.

Does their date of registration pre date installation of the Spaminator? Also check - is the Spaminator still logging stops? If not, something's interfering with it. Installed any new add-ons lately?

Hello they are new registrations after the add-on is installed.
It does log stops it just doesn't stop all.
I haven't installed new add-ons.
This could be a case study I get new spam accounts daily you could use my site to see how are they doing it and possibly stop their workaround if possible.

If it's humans it's not a workaround. I'm happy to log in and study the situation, if you can DM me some credentials and the site URL.

Possibly humans making the accounts then using automation to log in and post. If that's the case we can stop that too.

Awesome thanks, credentials sent.

Update:
the add-on works it was actually real people registering the accounts.
Thanks to the team for helping me investigate.
