New spam filtering implemented

Posted by Trevor in Uncategorized on Dec 22nd, 2005 | View Comments |

In the past, I’ve been using proxy filters to try and minimize the spam comments being received to this site. While that does cut down somewhat on spam traffic, it has also filtered out some of my legitimate users, and they complain to me about, which is perfectly understandable.

Anyhow, I’ve been pondering a change for some time now, and in my reading, I’ve come across Bad Behavior, by fellow blogger Michael Hampton. It’s implemented and the old filtering software is gone.

Please let me know if you have problems leaving legitimate comments, and hopefully, I won’t have to manually delete 10-20 big ass and big tits spam comments a day anymore. I’m getting pretty darn sick of the digusting stuff that litters the net, especially when I have to spend significant time picking it up and putting it in the trash.

  • I think your filter is working pretty well, but it blocked one of my regular readers from leaving a comment from his job. I'm looking into ways to whitelist people.
  • Count yourself lucky that you were only getting 10-20 per day. They come fast and furious around here; I get 10-20 per day AFTER Bad Behavior is done with the 500 to 1000 others.

    I somehow don't think the spammers like me very much.
