Comments Section - Word/phrase Filter?

Is there anyway to stop a comment being posted (regardless of whether or not we approve it) using words and phrases?

Were getting spammed to death with some a load of links. They all include network54.com so I want to ban that phrase. Can I do this?

I am afraid, there is no such ability in the clean installation. But there are 2 useful settings in the addon which can help you:

Administrator must approve posts submitted by: Any customer

and

Only one post from one IP is allowed

Yeah we have both of those used/enabled but were getting 100's a day from some spam bot. Its just very annoying and saturates the list.

In this case it is required to modify the following file:

app/addons/discussion/controllers/common/discussion.php

Have you got image verification turned on, settings>security

Hi John, yeah we've got a captcha etc setup now. Its reduced the vast majority of spam.
