Plugin to Restrict Thread creations

mbforums

HI Guys !
Hope you are all well and enjoying life! and not stuck on your computer screen all day long!!!!!!!!
ok that felt good...

Anyway, I am fighting a losing battle with spam.

I have used Captcha, Questions On Signup, Botstop plugin but they all get in.

I think they are humans somewhere in China or india just spamming away.

So big question,

IS there a plugin which can restrict new members from creating new threads and requests them to comment 5 times before they can create a new thread. Also, comments needs a certain amount of time between the comments.

Possibly 5 of their comments needs to be approved by admin can be an options.
I think this will benefit spam posts.

Any idea

If there is not plugin, We should crowd fund it

Have you tried StopForumSpam?

You can also set the Vanilla.Approval.Require permission for the user role. This enables pre-moderation so that posts of users require moderator approval until the user is verified.

There was also a plugin called PreventWeblinks, but it is not in the addons repository anymore. Maybe someone still has a copy.

I don't have a copy, that was one of peregrine's plugins.
