Registration can be done by email verification and image verification.
All post can be done by image verification code.
All url hotlinking can be disabled in 1 option.
Site linking can be restricted to a few image hosts.
Forum banned word list can be updated.

So yep, no one is working on this forum coding now.

ps.:
If there will be no rule on signiture screen size and file size limit soon
I put up my 5mb 1280x1024 background image too.

It is useful to intermittently remind users of the forum rules.

Aren't u spamming?

There is already a stickied thread about it. No need u to remind.

sama98b · Post by **sama98b** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 9:56 pm

Got small ones in size but 10mb+ animated ones too.
If I wanna start killing ppl internet connections.
And can rotate them so they don't get cashed.

Every forum I been has rules about signatures.

And this one is starting to piss me off with all the images
in the signatures.
The topic maybe has 1 page of text but the rest of 10 page
is filled with same images over and over.

ps.:

There has been an uprising in the number of spammed posts made by spambots advertising pr0n, goldbuying, bots, cellular devices, penis pills, dating services, etc. etc. etc. over the last several months. It's gotten particularly bad in the past week or so, with several bots spamming 15+ threads at once sometimes. Sick and tired of reading this garbage? ME TOO! Here's how you can help.

DON'T RESPOND TO THEM. If they are the starters of a thread, all that does is bump their post up to the top of the list so that EVERYONE else seens it and has to read it. If you don't respond, it'll gradually move its way to the bottom and even off the page.
DON'T QUOTE THEIR POSTS. Quoting something they've posted in a thread means that not only do i have to delete their post, I also have to edit yours for content. This takes me double the time that simply deleting theirs does, and I have lockings to perform
PM A LINK TO THE OFFENDING POST TO A MEMBER OF THE MOD TEAM. Either link the post directly or just PM us the username so we can search for more posts by them. Better yet, do both; it saves us time. Including a brief but tasteful description of the offense in the post will make our jobs easier too.
And most importantly, NEVER EVER EVARRR CLICK A LINK YOU SEE IN THESE POSTS!! This is for your own safety and the safety of your account. These links tend to be positively seething with keyloggers and viruses, and that's the last thing anyone wants. So protect yourself and your data.

Let's face it: the spam problem isn't gonna go away; if anything, with a forum this size it's gonna get worse. If everyone follows these simple guidelines and suggestions, we can keep the amount of spam down to a managable level and allow the mod team to do something other than lock flame posts Thanks for your cooperation. Much love SRF!!

-SG and the SRF mod team

pls stop responding to posts that have all those weird words as the topic title

.........
anyone bother to read that?

idk...

PIE!!!!!!!!

Quoted For Truth.

Though it can also mean "Quite F*cking True."

There is always new members who dont know it is a bot-spam who made the thread .. so i can understend why they post there .. whit ?

And if someone respond on the thread and they see someone is interested off it and automatically register it on theirs well on something i dont know how is working really. But never post on this threads , well sometimes can be tricky to know if is a bot-spam thread or not , well only to report it to a mod .. :wink:

samba - Go get Firefox and get AdBlock Plus. Once you install it, you can right click anyone's sig and adblock it. Most people here dont even have sigs on my screen. Every single one with that gay pink haired chick, bad Paint sigs, sigs the size of 777 jets, multiple sigs... all of them are blocked on my screen so I dont have to see them.
