I have a home-rolled boat building (I wrote the php code) file based
forum. I don't want to post a link to it , because that will
just result in a new wave of spam post attempts.
I get 5-6 legitimate posts a day, and upwards of
20 attempts a day to post links to pharmacy sites,
porno sites and investment sites.
I have a way of aborting most of those post attempts,
based on a hard-coded list of known domains and keywords.
But I have to continually delete new posts and add
that new guy's address to the bad-guy list.
I assume, but I don't really know, that most of
these posts are coming from bots, rather than
interactive posters using the GUI and keyboard.
THE QUESTION
If I set a $_SESSION variable in the GUI,
and then abort posts if that SESSION variable
isn't set, will that work? Will that force all
posts to come from the keyboard and GUI?
......Or will the pesistant jerks be able to figure out
that's what's going on, and get around it somehow?
