Your main concern was the spam, and you have done well. That is progress, IMHO.
Just as a progress report: I'm now at page 160 of the users directory (newest first, 10 per page) at checking and banning SPAM accounts.
How do you detect those? :-? Funny names?
But actually the ones back there do not really matter, because they do not turn up on the front page and thus are never seen (non-logged-in cannot browse the users list AFAICT and logged in at least would have to actively search for a user to find a spam account), so I will basically shift down to just watching the front page and treating new spammers accordingly.
Right.
I have not seen new spammers creating groups yet, this seems to have been only a few some years back that had specialized on the elgg platform AFAICT, and they are deleted already.
I deleted some at the start that seemed recent, but not much. And some polls. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
