Few days ago one of my members on the Romanian Webmaster Forums Invatam.Net complained that he had some serious issues with a person who tried to spam the forums and got banned. The problem was also that my member lost his temper too and after kicking the spammer out made the bad decision of cursing him.

The spammer got mad too and threatened to attack the forums in all possible ways (spam bots and also hacking attempts). As you can imagine my member is shocked now to see what he got into. I responded to his question on the forums too, I think it would be a good idea to also mention my ideas to you here too, in case any of you might face something similar.

So .. The forum is under attack .. HOW CAN WE SURVIVE?
