I'm fine with the spam going into the moderated bin. It's the 10 - 20 a day that don't that's irritating.

I thought my naughty word list was pretty extensive...but perhaps it needs help.

BTY, will the naughty word list filter out posts with listed words in the subject line AND/OR "Your Name" field?

: Catching in the moderated bin and bulk deleting is pretty easy, so

: Ohh.... and you could filter for IPs. At least some bots could be
