    he sent 4147 pms in one day!!!

    I think i should have a look in the VB admin options to limit the max number of pms aloud in one day.

    Wow, that spammer surely must have been a big bad bot to crank out over 4,000 pms on just one day.

    Lol yeah would be a good idea.

    Best way of doing it :

    1) Put users with less than 5 posts in a new user group.

    (make it the default group for new members)

    2) Set users in that group to not be allowed to send pm's.

    3) After 5 posts they get moved to a member user group and they can send a set number (site default.. say 5) pm's a day.

    This stops people/bots from just signing up to pm advertise there sites.

    Problem solved

    I have it set up like that on my site.
