Suggestions for blacklisting

• hranostaj.com
  • Done. -- Mr. Flay 12:19, 5 October 2007 (MDT)

• hajl.cheefmsn.com
  • The problem with this one is that none of the links on the spammed pages actually go to cheefmsn.com, which I assume is why the filter isn't catching them. ^somestrange_flea 00:36, 9 October 2007 (MDT)
    • Ahah, good catch. -- Mr. Flay 14:20, 13 October 2007 (MDT)

Specific entries that should be whitelisted

This can include personal webpages of actual Scummers on troublesome domains, or that happen to contain a word that is often used in spam.

alphabetical

should we alphabetize the list?.. just seems like it would be easier to not get duplicates if it was organized somehow

ok, i went ahead & did this... if there's a reason why it shouldn't be alphabetized, feel free to revert it, adding 'casino' to the list...
-- LyingBrian 13:29, 18 October 2007 (MDT)

Nope, order doesn't matter, and that seems like a reasonable way of keeping the list easy to manage... -- Mr. Flay 13:59, 18 October 2007 (MDT)

Funny thing

Hi! Some minutes ago I was updating my userpage and when I hit "Save" it came a warning page saying the the Spam filter blocked my page. Reason? Apparently the link to my deviantart account. screenshot The same happened with my blog link (which is vacuidaddeluz in blogspot) Maybe the filter's looking for URLs with "de". It's not a big deal to me, as I'm not whoring for traffic to my blog, but this means the filter's possibly too good. Andycyca||me||What? 10:11, 30 October 2007 (MDT)
