Some sort of spam control.
Posted: Wed Jun 13, 2012 9:08 pm
This topic will be a bit of a rant and complaint.
Throughout the day, There are an excess of my exaggerated estimate of about 50+ spammers per day. Throughout this period, there is an admin on about 30% of the time. Whenever an admin comes on, that is when all of the other admins come on. There really does not seem to be time-zone oriented organization of admins. All of the admins are generally on at one time, if they come on at all. This is not to say admins never come on, or that they are never on during these periods, Only in general they are not.
So, I propose we create some sort of anti-spammer plugin of some sort...
Perhaps an auto-kick system which kicks for spam, then after a certain amount of kicks it bans or jail/mutes them.
Another issue that arises from the noticeable lack of admin activity, is the lag. There is a lot of lag throughout the day with no admin on to restart the server.
Post away, please.
