�������� ��� ����� comment spam prevention plugins like Spam Karma, Bad Behaviour or Akismet it doesn't make any calls to the database, except one to update the statistics. In future releases even that will be optional.
Unlike Bad Behaviour, Spam Karma or Akismet, it doesn't call any external servers to fetch any data or make RBL checks etc. Our principle is simple. Comment spams should consume least amount of resources; in terms of CPU, Bandwidth or memory.
Notes:
Beta testing has been successfully completed. We have successfully tested the plugin for over hundred thousand hours in real-life conditions and we are fully satisfied with its capability and absolute lack of false positives. We are gearing up for the final release in October. Please submit a comment if you are interested.
Beta testing is by invitation only. Please leave a comment below or contact us if you would like to sign up for beta. We will accept 25 more volunteers so signup now.
We will ship to our beta testers by this weekend. If you do not receive it please let me know by email or using our contact form (above).
Robotic spam is spam that is created by automated scripts. They contribute to over 99% of comment spam in any blogs based on our tests of over 10 blogs.
Human spam is when a (sub?) human being actually takes time to visit your blog and drop their spam, touting their site or services. Human spam are harder to catch and are in many cases subjective. What some considers spam, others do not. It is a matter of preference. If someone leaves a comment relevant to the context and then adds his own link (which may be a recent site), I normally approve it. Others consider even such links as spam as it is advertising their site on your blog. However I wouldn't accept any comment containing certain keywords like v*agra, p*ker etc., others may allow them.
Pluglets are small plugins like applets are small applications, servlets are small servers or piglets are small pigs. You get the point.
