Is there a solution for flood ?

Only if you find the cause.. find the leak and plug the hole. Set proper permissions. Use the proper registration method that minimizes flood. Restrict users who you do not trust. Use a spam control plugin. We do not not know what you are doing. What you are using as registration. We don't know anything about your set up. Nice video. It shows that someone is posting over and over. Who are they ? Do they have permissions? What plugins are you using ?

You need to give more info on your set up if you want to solve your spammer issues...

I am using version 2.2.

ı use plugin: Stop Forum Spam, Akismet ,

I just want to take permanent measures. Is there no special plugin for this?

It's a valid question. If you look at example.com/vanilla/settings/floodcontrol you see the available settings, but activity is not in there.

You would have to write a plugin by yourself that does the spam check. You should use the following as a start:

    public function spamModel_checkSpam_handler($sender, $args) {
        if ($args['RecordType'] == 'Activity') {
            // Do Activity spam check here.
        }
        if ($args['RecordType'] == 'ActivityComment') {
            // Handle ActivityComment spam check.
        }
    }

Set $args['IsSpam'] == true if you think a post is spam. Look at VanillaModel::checkForSpam and ConversationsModel::checkForSpam to see possible implementations.

The config settings used for Discussions/Comments/Messages are the following:

Vanilla.Discussion.SpamCount
Vanilla.Discussion.SpamTime
Vanilla.Discussion.SpamLock
Vanilla.Comment.SpamCount
Vanilla.Comment.SpamTime
Vanilla.Comment.SpamLock
Conversations.Conversation.SpamCount
Conversations.Conversation.SpamTime
Conversations.Conversation.SpamLock
Conversations.ConversationMessage.SpamCount
Conversations.ConversationMessage.SpamTime
Conversations.ConversationMessage.SpamLock

I would suggest using analogue to the settings above

Dashboard.ActivityComment.SpamCount
Dashboard.ActivityComment.SpamTime
Dashboard.ActivityComment.SpamLock
Dashboard.Activity.SpamCount
Dashboard.Activity.SpamTime
Dashboard.Activity.SpamLock
