    What's the best way to stop spam using Vbulletin? Is there some type of plugin I should be using? I am using the Human Verification system.

    vBulletin.org -> Modifications -> 3.8 Modifications. Then search for 'spam'.

    NoSpam mod.
    You dont need anything other than this.
    Search vbulletin.org forum for this hack.

    It was previously stated, but enabling human verification is a major one so I'll repeat it.

    Aslo there is a mod on vbulletin.org that disables posting links for users with less than 15 posts... that is a pretty good one to use because most of the spammers try and post links before they get there and just keep getting the error message.
