A Question for the Mods/Admins

[Sigogglin]

Hey y'all, I asked awhile back about your experience with Xenforo and got some positive response. I mod another forum that was historically vbulletin but we moved to Xeforo about a year and a half ago. We're currently dealing with an influx of spam/bot accounts that post huge amounts of spam/nonsense threads in the wee hours of the morning.

Some of these bots are creating new accounts, but many are hijacking old/unused accounts.

I don't see that issue here, would anyone be willing to chat with me about settings/policies that are implemented on this forum that may help us?

I don't see that issue here,

I’m notamod, notanadmin, and notacop.

But it was becoming a real issue here to some degree till multi-step authentication was highly suggested for all members to utilize.

It was recommended here, but became a requirement on another site I frequent.
