Hi Dr. Dave, I used your spam karma 2 plugin up until about a month ago, at which point it began eating all of my comments. People who got through before I updated to v2 were no longer able to post comments w/o them getting marked as spam. Is this a common probelm w/ v2, or do you know of something I might be able to do to fix it? Thanks

What must I do to insure the correct operation of Spam Karma using mod_security on our server.

At present, we can’t determine what is causing it, but we are unable to update the blacklist due to the #$%#$ rule.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Matt, I’m not too sure what you are talking about. All I know is that the bug I reported at the time was specifically linked to diff #2584. Reverting that code fixed it. The version I and many people downloaded had the *new* code. Reverting it, fixed it.

Dave, the version you link to actually did not contain the bug that everyone is complaining about, it was actually due to your comments and others that we reverted to the version that did cause the bug in this changeset:

It was later fixed by this:

Heliologue: most likely, WPPM 2.0 will just be an auto-update as usual.
Actually: there might be an in-between version maintained by a kind contributor who seem willing to take care of development for the time being (something I really can’t do)… Stay tuned (it’ll appear in the ‘update’ section anyway)…

Dave, what kind of inclusion into the Plugin Manager are we going to see when 2.0 goes final? Will 1.x just get a one-click upgrade to 2.0, or will it be uninstall and reinstall, or will 2.0 take some manual configuration?

The link to the WordPress Plugin Manager on http://unknowngenius.com/wp-plugins/ is a dead link. The file can’t be found.

Dave,

Thanks for the comment the other day. You’re absolutely right – I know that I ramble on for faaaaar too long. *hangs head in shame* Sadly, being concise has never been my strong point, but I’m working on it, I swear!

I’m glad you found the translation useful – I enjoyed your commentary on the “scandal” (is that the correct word?) and Japanese reaction to it as well. I think you did an excellent job summarising both the relevant history and identifying some valid criticisms of the prevailing modern Japanese mindset. Good stuff, and I wish I could have written something like it instead of just providing a translation.

On an unrelated note, I just wanted to say that I enjoy reading your blog and as I mentioned in my website “about” page, it has influenced me in the past as I tried to figure out just what the heck I’m doing in this country. Keep up the good work

(oh and I like your mixes too!)
