Unfortunately scammers from India found LVGL forum (among other forums), and now they are bombing it with messages.
@kisvegabor , if you wish I can help deleting those topics/messages and banning those scammers, or if it's possible write a script that filters out those scam messages before being stored in forum database. (filter using regular expressions or simply checking for some keywords)

[kisvegabor]

Thank you for offering your help! Is it possible to write a custom script to Discourse?

I also added some filters and disabled google based login.

[kisvegabor]

They are still passing through...

Can you link some other forums where they are attacking?

[kisvegabor]

I have installed the Akismet plugin. Hopefully it will make it.

I have installed the Akismet plugin. Hopefully it will make it.

Since then there are no spam messages in forum.
Thx, I will close this ticket.

Yeah, it seems it really solved it.
