| The file "install.txt" is missed, put it into the folder "forum/admin/mods/textualconfirmation/ ". _________________ Oleg Parashchenko, bbAntiSpam Do you love our tools? Please sponsor further development! |

| How many/how often are notifications emailed to me and if I want to uninstall, can that be done through EasyMOD?

Hello,
Notification is send each time when the question is answered incorrect. Therefore, "how many/how often" depends on activity of spammers.
If TC is installed through EastMOD, then yes, uninstall can be done through EasyMOD. _________________ Oleg Parashchenko, bbAntiSpam Do you love our tools? Please sponsor further development! |

| Your version of phpBB is old, it's very recommended to upgrade it.

| Dear Oleg,
many thanks for your prompt and constructive feedback. With the suggested fix i was able to install the Textual Confirmation mod. I hope it will help me eliminate the bot spam that i encounter on a daily basis. btw, is it recommended to upgrade the version of the phpbb forum because of security reasons? Does the current version offer more advantages to this end? I could certainly update, my only concern is whether the already installed mods would work with the new version, or i would need to install them again? Another related question: do you know of a mod that will help me do mass processing on registered users? In particular, now i need to search for the individual names, and then eliminate all the bots one by one. It would be convenient to have a tool to do all of them at the same time, maybe from the link to the memberlist on the forum? Thank you again. regards, struga |

Hello,
Yes, I recommend upgrade due to security reasons. And yes, it's quite possible that you problems with already installed MODs. It's hard to recommend what to do, sorry.
I used PHPBB Admin ToolKit: http://bbantispam.com/howto/curing.html. It is easy in install and works well. _________________ Oleg Parashchenko, bbAntiSpam Do you love our tools? Please sponsor further development! |
