    It seems that I am going to need serious help here. My host sent three warnings and then shut me down again while I was at work.

    I haven’t heard from my developer and am wondering of he is giving up.

    As for the hosting issue, I needed to generate revenue before I could move up to more powerful hosting. If interested, please pm me and I will send you all the info via pm.

    im sorry. Let me try to explain some more detail, Please note the original post above. The problem of spammers and robot sing ups has apparently gotten to the point that my new host has issued multiple warnings over “slow MySQL queries” or something like that. Today, I got a new warning over cpu usage. The host has shut my site down again for the second time.

    Another issue I have (maybe not related) is that, after the site was moved and set up again, I could not access my dash board features. I got an error 500.

    This site was set up to be a community site similar to twitter, but with a slightly different flair. Right now, it has become a nightmare.

    I and my developer really need help in getting this mess under control or the spammers will win and my site will stay down and lost.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    My site has been shut down again. Apparently by spammers. Can anyone out there help me get this situation under control?

    I guess I did not ask my question right:
    Is there a reliable plug in to help me find and remove spammer, multiple account users, etc.?

    Is there also a way to manage user accounts to remove spam accounts and spammers?

    I didn’t ask my question right. I want to learn about WordPress and how to set it up, etc. Where would I go to learn more?

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. I should have updated this when we got the situation under control.

    My developer, disabled it. We then noted that this also impacted what was going on at the site. Stopping cron seemed to freeaze the page. It was not updating and one post stayed there for two days or so. He reactivated it, but then did something to it to reduce the cpu load.

    This has also forced me to look outsource for my ads. I.E. not hosting an ads script on my site. I am already looking at some ideas, but am awaiting replies from them.

    Everything seems to be working for the most part, but you did bring up a good question. How do I stop the bots and “fake traffic” that is invading my site. I think that they may be using some sort of remote access. How do I stop that?

    We have tried to isolate ip, but they are using an ip reandomizer that makes this approach impossible. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks again,
    Ryan
