I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Gmail.com users?

Post by .saint » April 12, 2009

is there a good bit of gmail.com users out there? i was curious if any of you used the gmail service?

reason being...
noticed a good bit of spam joined the site over the past few days and each spam bot that joined was using a gmail account. i checked the accounts over at stop forum spam and they all came up + as spam bots. SO i was thinking i could possibly block gmail email accounts from joining the website? but i was thinking this might also block legit members that might possibly use gmail?

not sure how popular of an email client google mail is?

i been trying to attack the forum spam as best as possible. its been really good since converting to phpbb3. but when i see one sneak by ill ban the IP then delete the account asap.
