There was a massive influx of spam the other day...

We as a community should be able to flag something as spam...Anonymous Coward - May 08, 2008 16:26
ooh sweet, cheap hotels!

oh wait... is it possible to get these defended with defensio or similar anti-spam?

that'd be sweet.jhsu - May 08, 2008 17:13
Luckily none of this appears in the site feed! I changed it the other day so that users have to be approved before their items appear in the feed.

Perhaps I should extend this to the site though as I appreciate not everyone uses the feed..Peter Cooper - May 08, 2008 17:22
Oh, and the links are "nofollow" if you're not an approved user.. so really there's no motivation for them to do this. That gets rid of most of the problem, but I guess there's the "last mile" still to resolve!Peter Cooper - May 08, 2008 17:22
