(Adv. GB 2.3.1) Make a redirect from old, guestbook or not?

Hello,

we are in the process of moving our entries (from a hosted gb at alxbook.com) to our Adv. GB install. The alxbook got lots of spam lately, including those with automatic redirect to pron sites. (I wish the makers of kinkyshit dot net a looong, slow death...)

Google will still be listing the old GB for a while, so what would you suggest: Make a redirect via .htaccess? Or will this just redirect the porn spam robots, and we should just delete the old GB and not redirect?

My advice is use a .htaccess redirect. I once used alxnet's guestbook but the url format leaves it open to easy spamming. They use the same url but just change the number for each user. All a spammer has to do is a make a program submit their post and increase the number by 1 every time. o prevent spamming on 2.3.1 have a look at my image verification mod.
