Guys I browse and read some different other forums. In the last few days there is some new appearance of anonymus browsing mostly by chinese and vietnamese people which log in anonymously somehow and spam the forums with advertising-threads and fill forum-users PN-boxes up to the limit with their useless spam.
I don't know if that would be possible here but be aware!

Here it is the same: every day, depending on the day, this forum experience hundred or thousands of register tentative.
My first worry since when I started thinBasic web site was users security and pleasant place: I want a place where you feel are between friends in a secure nevironment.
So since few years thinBasic forum has an AntiSpam system called Spam-O-Matic (More info at: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=248042 )
Only today the AntiSpam system has blocked more than 250 tentative to register by spammers and automatic systems.
Attached the list of few today hours of tentative to register in thinBasic forum.
And more: even if a user register correctly, another AntiSpam system checks up to the 5th post made by new users to identify if posts contain some words, links, ... known threads and if yes the post is putted under Admin moderation.
