Disabling user 'ads' in forum signatures?

Post by Pie-jacker875 »

I am constantly seeing these annoying "dragcave" dragon egg crap people throw in their signatures and I just want something to get rid of them so I don't have to constantly block them myself (Seriously, you should see how many I have on my filter list). I don't know how to do this, as I don't even know how the add block stuff works. So...

If you provide so example pages and /or the filters you have created to block them so far we might be abler to help you out.

Have you tried the following filters?

Code: Select all

||dragcave.net^$third-party
||dragonadopters.com^$third-party

No, I haven't, seeing as I have no idea how to do any of this stuff. I'll try it though...
Edit: Okay, thanks! I think it worked.

Aghhh. Someone bypassed it with tinyurl:

Can anything be done or will I have to block these ones manually if I see it again?

Just block tiny url within the forums...if folks can't be forthcoming with their links.

dragcave.net/*/i*.tinyurl.*
dragcave.net/i*.tinyurl.*

etc.

Open the blockable items by pressing ctl+shift+v and navigating to the culprit and using wildcards to prevent others.

I am really stupid with this stuff, and it was only one person, so I doubt I'll see someone else do it. I think I'll be fine, actually.

What about ||tinyurl.com^$domain=example.com, where example.com is the domain that the forum is hosted on?
