Hi, i have had theese people coming on my guest thread on my forum posting links to a Chinese dating website, i cant read Chinese so i can't contact the owner of the website and tell them to stop it. I really don't want to shut down the guest thread as its used alot,and its the only place where guests can post. I have banned so many IP addresses now but its getting ridiculous - what can i do?

First off, you need to get rid of the Chinese, as it is violating the TOS. (either modify the post and get rid of the Chinese, or delete the post)
Second, either ban their IP, or just ignore it.

Are the IP's Similar?
If so, just ban the first part of the IP.
For example:
12.4.45.452 12.4.67.123 12.4.8.345
Just ban the first part, 12.4

Well, they could be hosting it from different parts of the world....
They could also be using Proxies.
It may come to not letting guests in.

A tip I learned from helping someone else out. Is the bot using the same name every time? If so, reserve that name (copy-paste into admin>>restrictions>>set reserved names)... That should stop it for a little while until a real person updates the bot.
If not then you're going to have to follow Snake's instructions...

That is not going to help as they will have to disable guest posting all together as once a board is targeted they will keep coming back. Baning ips is the best thing and stopping guest posting. Chinese spam bots use names like SIEFHSHFSDHFSD and they are different each and every time.

Just forget about me then... *leaves thread*
