8WayRun.Com - Signature Check

[admin]

This is a very simple mod... I was having a massive spam account problem on my forums. Everyday, about 30 accounts register on my forum, and the majority of them are all spam accounts. They don't post on the forums, but they register, set up a signature, post on blogs and profile pages, and send spam PMs.

What this mod does, is hook into the signature creation. Whenever anyone submits their new signature, if it contains a URL at all, it will send the admin of the forums an email. The email contains:

$username ( mailto:$email ) has returned a positive on signature spam check:

----------
$signature
----------

Posts: $posts ( $bburl/search.php?do=finduser&u=$userid )

Control Panel Edit $bburl/admincp/user.php?do=edit&u=$userid
Delete This Account: $bburl/admincp/user.php?do=remove&u=$userid

As you can see, it includes the username, their email address, the number of posts they have made, a link to search their posts, a link to view their control panel profile, and of course a direct link to delete the account.
