Post new regulations for uploading pictures and files

#1  Tormie 24 Jul 2007 17:14

Hi friends

Due to spammers that entered the site and tried to upload malwares in the free stuff page I changed the permissions for the album and the free stuff page and I think to have found a good solution. From today only the users with at least 5 posts in the forum (Cellies group) can upload pictures and files. The new users must be approved before their posts are visible and counted so we can easily check them.
If an user wants to upload things in the site before having 5 posts in the forum he or she can contact me and I'll put him/her in the Cellies group manually

It's a great idea!   Spammers never will ask for approval or post 5 times they would be very exposed!

Don't forget to electrify the barb-wire, while you're at it.  Can't be too careful (or too nasty...) when it comes to spammers....

Sounds like a good solution Tormie.

Well, I don't know if it was a malware, I simply was unable to download it... However we have from 2 to 10 spammers that register everyday, we have full control of them because the new users can do nothing without an approval, the only section kept without approval were the album and the uploads, now they are secured (I hope )
