Participant@sdglhm have you asked user who is not receiving the activation emails to check in spam folder?

ParticipantIt should be more “accurate” since it’s not using heuristic techniques to detect spam. Those sorts of techniques should work very well in concert with what my plugin does though. Anything that gets through the Spam Destroyer should be fed through Akismet for checking, in theory leading to an extremely low amount of spam.

Participantit’s an interesting plugin no doubt i know it’s probably a bit early to be able to give a real apples to apples comparison but i’m just wondering how the accuracy compares to API based spam/splog prevention such as akismet or wangguard.

ParticipantThe plugin seems to be working fine so far. I haven’t received any complaints so far.
I’ve posted a new version for download:
http://geek.ryanhellyer.net/products/spam-destroyer/The main difference with this new version is that it lets me track statistics on how well the plugin is working on your site (assuming you opt-in for it). This should help me work out how well the plugin is working without having to pester people for updates on the plugins progress 🙂

I’ll delete this in a while or is that post I found marked as spam the one you wanted to post up ?

ModeratorThe reason for that is so many installs are not customized enough and that makes it easy for bots.
No system is safe from spam.

ParticipantThanks a lot. Looks like I’ve found a pretty spam-targeted platform.

Participant@mercime thanks for the heads up probably gonna stick with WangGuard for my buddypress client at this point but glad to see there are more options now.

Participantlooks cool i’ll keep it in mind for any future buddypress test projects!

ParticipantIt does user registrations, site registrations and logged out user comments.
I don’t actually use BuddyPress, so don’t have any way to test it in a live situation myself. It is dealing with my blog comment spam flawlessly though.

KeymasterLooks cool. What types of integration does it have? Spam user signups?

ParticipantAnd now when I try press “Delete account” It doesn’t do anything.

Participantthere is no perfect solution for this problem and these “bots” are actually humans a good deal of the time i have had good experience with WangGuard though.

ParticipantYou cant ban @yahoo.com, because of all other innocent people.
Like i said before, i have 3 sets of code.
the code will Ban username@yahoo.com and not the whole yahoo.
March 26, 2013 at 8:23 am #158230In reply to: Automated Spam
ParticipantThe one was @ifreegames.org
March 26, 2013 at 8:18 am #158225In reply to: Automated Spam
ParticipantIf they all were @yahoo.com then won’t all yahoo.com people be banned?
March 26, 2013 at 7:48 am #158200In reply to: Automated Spam
ParticipantAre the spam from the same domain or different domains? anyways I can give you some code which you can put in your functions.php and they will be blocked from your registration.
The code can block
domain extension e.g .pl .ru etc
or the full email e.g spam@yahoo.com
and or just domain e.g wesell.com
If you are interested i can put the code in githhub.

Maybe this one is too big, spam user registration countermeasures.
March 24, 2013 at 8:11 pm #157637In reply to: Spam User Registration
ParticipantThere is no perfect solution other then to disable registration entirely but i have had a good experience with WangGuard. FYI a good chunk of these “bots” are actually humans (at least at some point) believe it or not.
March 23, 2013 at 10:38 pm #157579In reply to: How to turn off e-mails in 1.7 beta 2
limitx3m
ParticipantI’m aware that users can turn it off.
Let me explain again.
I have a vbulletin database and am converting it over to bbpress.
When doing so, I get notifications for EVERY @ in the last 3 years. That’s several thousands of emails going out and spamming users.
I need to turn it off so I can test the database conversion and I don’t want to spam my thousands of users.
Should I report this on the trac?
@shanebpdev
Thank you for replying. Looks like I will need to do one of your suggestions.
