This. I didn’t even have to open thread on mobile. Quick fix for viewing.If you open one of the threads, click on the user, then click on ignore they disappear.
There were only 2 users this time, so it took 30 seconds to ignore both.
Awesome. I was trying to figure out how to report them and to whom. Also from the other night when I was watching them, they appeared to ab attempting SQL injections, etc, or use some sort of API to post them. It looked like they were testing and testing over and over again until they figured it out. I'm not sure what version of XenForo you are running but the older ones were definitely susceptible to injection attacks. I would make you are patched to the latest code of 2.1.1There were multiple reports and about 50+ spam messages. I'm going to crank the spam settings up a bit which can delay some genuine registrations but will make it harder for the spammers.
Also I might consider adding another moderator that is typically on late at night/early in the morning that can help out in situations like this.

Might want to look at using a CDN like Incapsula or Cloudflare to front the site. They can easily block entire countries or IP blocks and also block known spammers, etc. I use Incapsula on a car forum I administer and it really helped stopped the spammers. I also use Cloudflare on a car club website and it works well there to. Both of those have free options.

Good, I had to ban a spammer yesterday
