solace Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 until Invision gets their act together, I have no real choice but to disable the Private Messaging feature rather than to continue going over our daily outgoing email limit. sorry guys Quote Link to post Share on other sites
okp greg Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I can't believe they can't properly limit the amount of pm's someone can send. The patch is definitely installed properly? I mean, I took a look at the readme for it and it doesn't look terribly difficult, but I've screwed easier stuff up myself. It's just odd that they released a patch that doesn't work. Does Microsoft own them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 they do allow the amount of PM's... but these new bots are sophisticated enough to throttle the mass PM's just enough to get through the flood filter but yes, patch is def installed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wow. I don't know how difficult it'd be for you to try to use user classes to limit it like some people on the ipb boards were suggesting but that sucks. Hopefully you won't have to wait for 3.0, I wonder why it seems to be only invision boards though. The only solution I could think of based on what I was reading is either the user classes, or if they implemented captcha's for pm's or for at least the first dozen or so from an account.
