A [Flarum](http://flarum.org) extension.

Checks new user registrations against the `StopForumSpam` database. If either the `confidence` or `frequency` thresholds are reached, the user is prevented from completing their registration on your forum. SSO register via `fof/oauth` and `fof/passport` is also supported. Other SSO providers should work, but are untested.
