Anti-spam measures

The rise of spam attacks have made us adding more measures against forum spam. Most notably are the introduction of the potential spammer status and the integration of Stop Forum Spam for checking and submitting spammer data.

For more information on anti-spam measures, please read the new document "Spam Protection" (docs/anti-spam.html). It contains some recommended settings for public forums.

Upgrading

UseBB 1.0.13 can be considered a mature and stable version of UseBB 1, suitable for all websites. However, numerous forums are still using an older 1.0.x version, or even a beta 0.x one. Keeping into account all the issues and bugs fixed over time, we encourage all of these websites to upgrade to 1.0.13 as soon as possible.

Any version equal or less than 1.0.12 is now out of official support. Visit http://www.usebb.net/downloads/ for downloads. Information about upgrading is available in the docs/index.html document.
