Spam Prevention

Submitted by Benjamin Tolputt on Wed, 08/11/2010 - 12:05

Sadly, even before we have finished the site nor reached many visitors - we have become the target for automated spammers (which means they use the BlenderArtists forums, the only place this URL is published on the web).

As such, we've had to instigate some controls to prevent this. It should filter out a majority of the new registrations and over time we'll be able to weed out the fake users in the member list. We've also taken on another moderator to assist in this regard.

The site has been up for a coupe of weeks and we've had some good feedback as well as a few good bounties added. In addition to that, we have had a few suggestions on how to make the site better.

So over the past week we have added the following to the site:

  • Private Messaging Facilities
  • Improved Forums
  • The ability to read the profile of any user
  • The ability to add images to bounties & incentives (as well as basic galleries)
  • The ability to subscribe to a forum topic, bounty, or blog

After weeks of delay, server trouble, and life just simply getting in the way - I've finally got the ArtForCode website up and running. Stylistically, it's a little bare but being a coder and not a bonfide artist - I think it looks good enough for release
