Does Asgaros forum have any spam protection?
Quote from JonI on August 15, 2021, 10:57 pmI’m glad to see that the massive spam that was on this forum has been cleaned up. But I’m wondering – if I decide to implement this particular forum on my website (sadly, quite a little chance now), what spam prevention tools, if any, would I have available to me as a forum administrator?

Features:
– Check both new post (reply) and new topic content for spam keywords
– Manage blacklist terms easily in Settings > Spam Check for Asgaros
– Choose whether to automatically ban users on spam detection
– Customise the error message when spam was detected
