Spam at my squishdot siite
How-To Posted by on Wednesday December 13, @07:11PM

Question about minimizing spam attacks to squishdot. Greetings,

I've been running a squishdot site for 6 or 7 years now. The site is designed to help people with FreeBSD. http://lantech.geekvenue.net/chucktips if you're interrested. Squishdot is a fantastic product! Many thanks to all who created it.

Anyhow, I get so many spam posts these days that it's difficult to keep up with the modration. The other day I renamed my addPostForm to Add_PostForm and I changed my links from post article to "add article" and I also changed Reply to "Add a Reply.

Well, to make a long story short I slightly, very slightly, cut back on the number of spam posts. However it didn't stop it and within less than 24 hours I was deleting 10 or more spams posts.

If you have any ideas of how to minimize the posts by fooling whatevcer bot xomes by I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you in advance.


Jason Neumann,

Chucktips Newbie Friendly
