Moderation or Stop List [Answered] | Forum

Is there a plugin coming or available that allows moderation or a stop words list to stop spammers from posting bogus links to the links section or blog?


Our site is constantly attacked by a spammer creating new users and posting payday links to our link board.  We just blocked basic users from posting links but the intent of a registered user is to be able to post links, images and other content.


Any suggestions would be helpful


Thanks


Jason

Yes, we have been using that as a short term fix but to allow users who join to instantly share images, stories and video we favor automating the process.   We dont have moderators on during the day to approve users.


Thanks for the help.
