Can someone please explain to me the details of this Antispam feature? What is the problem, what was it put here to do?

Is it the thing where members need to wait 20 seconds before posting another message, or is it another feature?

I am trying to find it in the admin panel but have not had much luck.

I'm not sure if this has already been mentioned but I believe the anti-spam script is not to be found in the Admin CP or anywhere like that; it's probably a function which has been written into the 'post' script.

Disabling it is probably just a case of removing the line which calls that function in the 'post' script. I'm not 100% sure if this is how IPB works but it seems to make sense.

well i for one am sick of arguing.

there is nothing more to be said than whats been said already.


so rookie thanks for your reply and iam hoping to see the anti-spam removed for good.


please make a topic and inform us when and if it is taken away.


i hope i can remain friends with RGX who i had a little falling out over on MSN


all i ask is that we can be more involved in the future about the changes of the board

Yep. I wonder if Marc wrote it into the post code himself or is something you can get somewhere else. If it's the latter, maybe we can look for it and how to remove (or fix) it.

edit - Whilst getting more anti-spam messages (now seem to be a flood of them ), I checked Admin CP on a "default" forum..... there is nothing as the such, and see no "easy" way to adding more functions to the CP, just hard-coding the php files

From his (7th E) original post, it looks like he wrote it, largely due to the fact he personally submitted it to the IPB developers. I just hope they can refine it before they add it to the next IPB software

As I said over MSN, not a problem. Arguments make life interesting.

Whats spam?

[Rip The Jacker]

We are in the process of removing the anti-spam. The anti-spam option is not in the Admin CP, so we need to get ahold of Marc (7thElement). Instead of using the anti-spam script, we will simply deal with members using scripts to spam ourselves.

You guys have to be patient, Brian has e-mailed Marc this morning, and we are waiting for an answer.

Should have never been installed if no one knew how to use it.
