In doubt Dennis wants anyone or anything else decided who or what is spam.

We already use several databases that disallow proxies, tor network nodes , zombies and our own banned IP database. However the sheer number of proxies makes it impossible to block them all. That database is practically worthless for forums because banning a username does not curtail peoples conduct and the IP list is most likely already in the proxy list which is insufficient at best.

I use a proxy detection script in my website, it works well ! (detection, not a list). The script intervene in the account creation and forum (when sending).
Good luck !

[redicated] still works... Just saying. I dunno wether I should have said that, if the trolls get their hands on it. :o (Lick) Edited by hobbet360 on Feb 22, 2013 at 02:22 AM
