On my forum I always get tons of spam. Even with heavy anti piracy mods. Although lately it has slowed down not sure why. But anyhow it has always been pretty bad. Which is why I like SMF. They have a feature in 2.0 version to make it so the posts will never show until I approve it. Then I just delete the spam before anyone ever will ever see it and problem solved.
But some have complained they don't like it because it is to restricting. Making people wait to have their posts show up. But I don't have the time or the money to hire staff to moderate all the spam.
So have any of you been on a forum that had moderator approval for posts before and was it annoying?? Or if not what are other good ways to stop spam??
