       Yesterday something changed. I got  folks from my site
       contacting me through email that they are being block from the
       site. They say this shows up when trying to get to the site from
       10am on 12/1   Jut tried it again now I an getting a screen that
       says my ip address has been blocked by spam blocker.
       
       Do I need to start sorting IP addresses and posting them here so
       you dont block them all?
       This addy I know this guy first hand and he is being denied as
       a spammer.  IP addy is                  removed IP now

       If you are blocked there should be a link to appear that allows
       you to unblock that ip address

       I have had a series of ip addresses attempting to register for
       an account.
       I have googled 'look up (number)' and they all come back as spam
       bots.
       How can i deal with this?

       Not much other than banning the IP.

       banning a particular ip wont matter much ...I can change my ip
       address by turning the wifi off for 5 minutes and wulla, new
       number sequence all together..
       every new member that registers must be approved by admin...me,
       before they can even view the boards or post... (guests can only
       view rules and about)
       How safe are we?

       its basically an invite only forum so every new member is
       already known. Total strangers with weird nicks wont get a toe
       in the door we should be sweet right?

       Invite only/manual approval for registrations would prevent them
       from joining
