My favorite mod for phpBB is the one where you actually use a different board system ...
Anyway, "my" phpBB required quite a bunch of anti-spam plug-ins. The built-in Captcha mechanism is far from being enough to stop spammers. Looks like they are specialized in spamming phpBB boards.
Quick Reply Reloaded is also a good one but the Extensions Manager isn't recognizing the current version for some reason. I haven't figured out why.
And a WYSIWYG editor would be great if anyone can recommend one that isn't buggy.
I hard-code ads and Google Analytics but we don't have premium memberships. Otherwise we'd probably use the Ad Management plug-in.
As far as spam, we put new members on moderated posting for their first few posts. No big deal for the mods and it catches 99% of them.
