I wanted to try and get some more people to use my Blacklist Peering Plugin for WordPress and suggest some improvements/features that they would like to see. Frankly, it is a boon for spam prevention.
I peer with only two other weblogs and update every few days. I religiously add stuff to my blacklists and moderation lists but I only catch so many spam clues. The lists keep growing and I feel like they are much more powerful and comprehensive considering the fact that I am using the collective “spam experience” of three seperate blogs/bloggers.
I have some very interesting suggestions from Geof and would like to add the ability to pick and choose the words that get merged into your blacklist/moderation list.
Mark,
I’ll definitely install the plugin and work with it.
Mark,
Drop me a note to my email when you have the time.
I’m installed and ready to exchange Peer IDs!
If you wanted my spam table to analyse for keywords I’d happily give it to you
I’m using full moderation at the moment because spam is just so bad. Its got better though, I think I’ve put them off with the moderation so going to a blacklist would be a good idea: I’ll probably install this one when I get the time.
I’m still running the prototype here, though I never import from other sites. I add new entries to both the moderation and blacklist keys practically every day, so hopefully you’ve been getting some good entries from me.
The ability to pick-and-choose which entries are added on import would definitely be a boon. I stopped blindly importing after receiving some patterns that were too broad in scope.
This isn’t a feature update, eh?
