I remember reading some posts here previously about people fighting the constant battle with spam. Boby has just released a new mod that checks blacklists against spammer IPs, and thereby adds another layer of spam protection. More here: http://www.phplinkdirectory.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=11
sad but true, in that you can never fight off the spam. If you guys really want to fight off the spam on your dirs. unset the god damn data like i do on activeweblinks.com that'll send them losers elsewhere. if someone wants to complain that they have to resurf back to the category to resubmit, then too bad. i don't hold hands for any submitters, because if they truly cared about what they are doing for their site(s) and want to be included, then time needed to get their site included would be taken. It also shows another level of concern to quality imho. just my dot zero two on the subject. Rob
