I believe I am experiencing a problem with the spam mod on my site since this problem just started happening today. The site has forums set to allow anyone to post but in the guest mode (unregistered or not logged in) anyone trying to post gets the following message:

BingBling Forum Index
General Error

In order to try to prevent spammers, we do not allow our users to post URLs or enter personal data into their profile until they have posted at least 5 legitimate posts and have been with us for more than 5 days. We appreciate your understanding in this matter in order to help us eliminate spam from this forum. If you have somehow gotten this message even though you meet both of the criteria, please let us know ASAP.

Thanks!




Does this mean that registration will be required and guests are no longer allowed to post because of the mod or is it something else?
