miserable users suffer mod

[Jasa]

I found, that there is hack for miserable users for vBulletin.

I understanded that you put spammer into a specific usergroup and the this all fun happends to him!

When classed as miserable, a member suffers ;

1. Slow response (time delay) on every page (20 to 60 seconds default).
2. A chance they will get the "server busy" message (50% by default).
3. A chance that no search facilities will be available (75% by default).
4. A chance they will get redirected to another preset page (25% & homepage by default).
5. A chance they will simply get a blank page (25% by default).
6. Post flood limit increased by a defined factor (10 times by default).
7. If they get past all this okay, then they will be served up their proper page.

Note: All the above options are set in the vBulletin Options.

This could be cool for SMF too! But I think it's pretty hard to code!  ..and I'm not a coder at all..

Could be good fun unless they start emailing you telling you your site isn't working for them.

my thoughts exactly

and not just that - for newbies they could end up just leaving the site altogether thinking it sucks that the pages dont load

Isn't that the idea if the newbie is a spammer?

Indeed, I believe that this is the purpose. It's probably intended for spammers and pests who you want to lose without provoking.
