Users can register on their own again. But we have now to approve posts of new users manually. I think this is the better solution as a lot of users register here without posting anything.
/admin/spam-link-prevention-config.jspa
Moderate all content by users who have 10 [instead of 0] or fewer status level points, regardless of links in content (or set to 0 to ignore this rule).
/admin/settings-registration.jspa
Again set to Registration Moderation: [x] Disabled
The Domain grr.la is now also disabled for account creation. I thought it was in the long list. But somehow it is not complete - I have to update it again to contain all temporary or disposable email domains.
It seems the Korean kids play now somewhere else. So I reverted the setting back to the default:
/admin/spam-link-prevention-config.jspa
Moderate all content by users who have 0 [setting to 10 seems to be fine moderate content] or fewer status level points, regardless of links in content (or set to 0 to ignore this rule).
Another 3 posts with arabic character in the moderation queue. Registered from yahoo.com email. Email name is gibberish though, so maybe we have to turn on the registration approval for a week or so.
I don’t like to moderate registrations as only 10% of the new users post anything. Deleting these users with all content seems to be fine as they do not reuse their email to re-register.
That, no second post for 180 seconds is killing me though… I’m too fast for this and i don’t want to wait for every simple reply… Can the adjust this for new users only?
There is this setting? I think it should be disabled. It is bugged and interferes with a normal usage. I can’t post a blog comment at all (haven’t posted anything for 24 hours) i often get errors in the threads when again 30 seconds already passed. This is not stopping spam messages.
