Wordpress Plugin The Geek S Spam Filter

And so, the Geek’s Spam Filter was born.

This spam filter is designed to completely block and delete most, but not all spam. It runs before Akismet does, so it saves processing time on your site, as well as a lot of your time.

Feature List

Deletes any spam with more than 5 links. The majority of spam has a zillion links because not only do dirty rotten spammers never stop, they are also stupid. Blocks any comments containing any one of a whole bunch of spam words. These are defined manually in the plugin file. Runs before Akismet does, so it will work in conjunction. Explains to the spammer in a very friendly way that you hate them. Works fine with WordPress MU edition.

Things this plugin does not do (sadly)

Track down the dirty rotten spammers and beat the living daylights out of them.
