   Would volenteer to help out, but to date I’ve only recieved 2 spams…so, uh, I don’t think it’d help much :\

   Hook me up!

   I just had to hack some code into my core wp-comments-post.php file last night to block a bunch of spams that were bypassing the usual checks. We’re probably going to add this particular hack into the core WP 1.3 code.

   I’ll give it a shot, I’m curious how you went about doing this, I was thinking of the saem thing the other day myself. I just switched to WP from Drupal and only once got spammed running Drupal for almost a year, however I have received over 50 WP spams. I’d love a solution for this.

   I’d also like to give it a shot. I’m just getting my WP blog off the ground (<15 entries so far) and I’ve already been comment spammed by a gambling site. This looks to be a lower maintenance & less comment-discouraging solution than another comment-authorization plugin that I’m looking at. Thanks!

   I wouldn’t mind helping to try it out – I’m getting about 20-100 spam attacks a day…

   Hi,
   i would like to test your new tool using WP 1.2.1

   I have used this plugin for about a month. Until recently the spam I receive has been light. In the last few days it has averaged 40-50 a day and the plugin has been working fine.

   I’ve been using CSPAM for about a week now. Tip to the testers: don’t try to test the plugin from your own IP address. I think my spammer stopped coming around, but I’m not sure because it could be that CSPAM is just working that well and I don’t see the evidence.

   Which makes me want to suggest to Mark that you put in some sort of stat/feedback page somewhere.

   There is one, though it is not for public distribution.
   It has been emailed to you.

    Are you sure? This plugin has not been in production for that long. You might be thinking of the three strikes plugin.

    I know, but it’s an overall summary. I looked at it again before posting my comment and what I’d like to see is the ability to break it down by comments filtered by *my* site’s instance of CSPAM.

    Mark, I’m still up and running on surfionline.com. I’d be interested in seeing the spam service statistics/summary page – specifically for my site to see what’s happening there.

    Regards,
    Chris.

    I’ve been getting ~20 comment spams a day. I’d love to give your plugin a try.

    Hey I’d like to try out this plugin, I keep getting spam on and off.. I thought I got rid of it, but just recently it came back hard, atleast 4 different spamers hitting me at once. I’ll try anything that can possibly help.

    Mark,

    You’ve no doubt seen my anti-spam plugin here, so it’s probably obvious I know a thing or two about spam. I’d be happy to alpha test yours, if you still need testers..
