I am facing heavy spamming on one of my directory - 347 spam submissions in 10 days. I have installed ban MOD but I am wondering which and how many words should I put in ban words.txt. I am using ver 2.1.3 .

I have changed from free submission with reciprocal to paid one but still I get such spam submissions.

Till I find a solution, is there a way to bulk delete these submissions without using PHPMyadmin.

This is the type of thing where you should add words over time and you will see a decline in spam. Add words that are common in the spam you are receiving. And of course, make sure you are using captcha to prevent automated submissions.
