Miscellaneous News:
New Block Added
I added a new block to the forumhome titled, Blocked Bots On OzzModz. You can see this block above the What's Going On area, by clicking on this link, Naughty Bots & Spiders :)
What this does is take the counts from various spam mods I have installed and shows the total spiders, bots and spammers that were blocked. The Bots That Were Blocked Due To Hostname & Useragent counts are low due to the fact that for the past year, I had the reporting turned off for that mod, but I have now re enabled it. I just added this so users can see what kind of affect the spam mods I recommend to install has on the site. :)

Mod Of The Month At vB.org
This month there are four of my mods up for MOTM:


along with another mod by another developer, Similar Threads After The First Post - VB4 - By AioNets.com. So if you have not yet voted for MOTM this moth, please do so by going to the MOTM thread, MOTM for September 2014 - vBulletin.org Forum and vote for your favorite mod, even if it is not one of mine. All the developers appreciate the nominations, and the votes.

Upcoming Mods
I am still working on a few other mods. One is the thing I use to show Founder Of OzzModz in my posts, you can see a screenshot here, OzzModz
This will be based on userid so you could use it for just yourself, or for a few individuals.

The other mod is a button in the header (or somewhere, have not quite figured out what to do with it yet), that will toggle your invisible status on/off. This can be useful for those of you that change it often.

As always, thanks for reading, and thanks for being a member of OzzModz. :)
