Site Cleanup - glen - 07-07-2009
Hi guys,
I haven't done a squidfish spring clean for a while so it seemed like a good thing to do.
This evening I have merged quite a few threads on similar topics, renamed some topics and have moved quite a few topics to different sub-forums. I also deleted the occasional "chat chat" thread. But not very many.
The task is not quite finished. But I will try do some more tidying in the next few days.
All the best and happy squidding,
Glen <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':th' />
ps. In the next month or so I will upgrade the forum to the latest and greatest version of the underlying software (Invision Power Board 3.0). Hopefully that will go smoothly <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

Hi Glen,
ive updated one of my boards i admin for to 3, the spammer bit is good.. shoudl stop the above stuff happening most of the time! pretty are we get spammed there actually.. like maybe once or twice a year get a few posts

hi kangaroo, unfortuntely i have the lifetime licence which does not include the spam monitor module! i could pay for a licence to get it but it is not really worth the money. i will just keep doing it manually. good to have another forum admin on board!
cheers, glen

we broke a lot of bots from registering by adding a custom field that users must enter to register.
