URL Filters...

Lately it seems like more and more spammers are posting their damn referral links, sometimes they try to hide them other times they don't. Anyways, its getting really annoying really fast. I suggest a URL filter for signatures and posts that deletes any links that include "id=", "rid=", "ref=", "cbill=", etc. to kill all these spammers' lame attempts.

It seems everytime I log on, there are at least two threads created for spammers to advertise their bullshit.

hooty mcboob makes a good point

i am in agreement with those hott hott tit-tays

I agree.
Spammers=Bad
Kanzen's tits=Good

hmm... good idea

Good idear!

added "***", "r***", "***", "***" to blacklist

w00t!

although.....why didnt it censor kanzie's post?

Because it is a pre-post filter not a on-the-fly filter.. on the fly takes TOO much performance!

thanks for the quick answer!

Heres some more urls to blacklist.

*** is also the most common referral variable name. A lot of these spammers use ***.
