Is this the first real pond post in days? I filter out all posts that
_don't_ have the word "pond" in their subject. How many am I missing?
Most. The group's doing quite well, actually. I have 337 valid posts over
10 days. I guarantee there are a good number of others that got
unfortunately blocked by my fairly simple filters.
I filter all cross-posts, anything from anonymous remailers, a few IPs, and
just a few specific posters (and I really think I could drop those rules -
the others take care of it) and I haven't seen a single non-pond post in
days. I refuse to put "pond" in the subject - besides the fact that it's
just as easy for the troublemakers to do it, you block out all the new
posters who come looking for help but don't know your rules.
I'll try dropping the "pond" filter and see what turns up.
Spring has just about arrived in the UK, so I need to start paying the pond a bit more attention. The skippy-style filter I installed last May seems to be doing very well (fingers crossed).
