"Hi Clark, this is just to say that probably this is a general problem, my ning network is also spammed, and I thank you for posting this. I will place a support ticket, hoping it will put pressure to Ning to fix it."

Here is what Ning says in it's 3.0 announcement:Is Ning 3.0 going to cost more?It depends. Since usage of Ning 3.0 isn't based on storage but on community size and level of support, some customers…Continue
Spam Blocking Features Needed: Wildcard IP Address Blocking and Bulk IP block upload
Started this discussion. Last reply by Adrian Manera Apr 4. 26 Replies 0 Favorites
A big problem in our fight against spammers is the lack of wildcard IP blocking. So for example, if this functionality was in place, we could block 41.82.*.* and block ALL IP's in that range. This…Continue
Ning function that does not scale to bigger sites: Birthdays
Started this discussion. Last reply by Janettee McCrary Nov 25, 2012. 3 Replies 0 Favorites
The display of member birthdays on the main page of our sites is limited to 20 birthdays. So that means that any site over 7300 members is omitting birthdays from the list. People get left out on…Continue

Thiago Santos de Moraes replied to Clark P's discussion 'Has Anyone Determined that they will pay less with Ning 3.0? Or is that just hype?'"With the new prices, any community with less than a 1000 members will be afraid to grow. The plus plan was more secure."
"Hey Scott,I was just comparing apples to apples - paid monthly vs. paid monthly.Cheers!"
"Alison,
I think we are all fine with upgrades to the platform. That is required and expected.
What are are not fine with is:
Price gouging: One of my networks will be force upgraded from $24.95/mo to $119/mo. That is a huge problem.…"
"Hi John,
If you really want NC help, why not set up a Ning 3.0 sandbox that all current Ning NC's can use to learn the system and know the upgrades needed for their own sites. They could get the new 3.0 site how they really wanted it and…"
"John,
With all due respect, you are asking for our help to refine a product that will cost us at least double what I am currently paying on my least expensive "upgrade" site and almost FIVE times as much on my most expensive…"

This price hike is substantial. The price increase range for my networks is 100% - 476%. Yes, a…"

"This sucks. One of my networks is a non-profit and the price will go up by $94 per month. That is not sustainable.
There NEEDS to be grandfathered pricing to keep the promises made to NC's when we created these networks."
"41.82.17.31
I think the need for wildcard IP blocking is obvious. All of the spammers in this whole thread could have been eliminated with two wildcard blocks taking about 30 seconds.
Without a system solution from Ning, this pattern of…"
