| Black listing words in comments |
I had yet another flood of comment spam over the last couple of days, so I spent some time last night writing some code to add word black listing to my IP based spam filtering. I also block over 100 IPs from posting to this blog now. It's helped a lot -- I am only black listing one word so far, and it's already blocked 200 spam posts...
Some details from the dawn of time: 559 posts which survived moderation, 12,665 posts which were manually blocked, 20,119 posts which were automatically blocked based on the submitter's IP, and 256 blocked because of use of a banned word (since last night!). My blog comments now take 258 megabytes on disk.
