Gone for Good

[LutiChris]

This thread is just for suggestions on getting rid of Hackers/Spammers...etc u get the idea...
Anyways my suggestion isn't all that great...
so thats why i want your suggestions put here...
(of coarse not all suggestions are perfect but i think atleast one suggestion from this thread could help)

[Evil Sonidow]

You know, I really thought this thread meant something else.

I had a suggestion that I didn't put on and it make us users to ban spammers but like 10 or somewhere near that users that have 5 green stars are allowed to do that.

[LutiChris]

i was thinking we could limit newcomers before they start posting, i don't make them aware of somethin, until they are able to go on, that way spammers wouldn't want to keep on going back and forth doing the same repeatily process...
any newcomer would forget about it once they have passed, but if you keep on getting banned the person will get very annoyed about repeatidly doing the process (still not quite sure 'bout what the process should be about...etc.)

Add captcha to the register. Add random math equations to the register.

well, im sorry but spammers are a fact of the internet.
Its hard to avoid them, and easy to get rid of them (insta ban)

i think our mods are on top of it. (good work guys, keep it up!)

Sniff...
You wanna get rid of me?
Sniff sniff.

Anyways. You can easily ban spammers but i don't understand the sense of adding hackers in the thread (even you have ment people called from us hackers "Cracker". Cracker are people that use theire hacking power and knowledge to damage your pc or something else.)
They usually just hack the site without any warning. And you can't ban them because they just don't have an account.

Phew. Almost thought Lutichris was gone for good.

Anyway, there is no way a non-spammer system could be devised. It will just have to be manual banning all the way.

Another Idea (Click to View)

HOWEVER, a good INDICATOR could be something like a record for the number of words in each post.
E.G.

• Total: 100
  
• < 10: 80
  
• >= 10 and <50: 15
  
• >= 50 and <100: 5
  
• >= 100: 0
  

The guy above would definitely be gone for good.
ALTHOUGH I guess posts aren't classified as spam ONLY by the number of words.
pffffffft...
That's probably too annoying to implement though, ESPECIALLY if Forum Games posts have to be excluded.

and i really think noir did the best job at banning those annoying spammers... he could locate them before you can say "lf2"
blue phoenix and simonoen are doing a great job too.

[Silverthorn]

Do you think it's possble to devise a system to stop Spammers...etc?

- Ban
- Ban
- Ban

Easy as that. The one that gets there first has the fun of banning him.
