Disallowed Comment Keys

    Hi there,
    your plugin is very useful.
    I use this plugin to not have to sift through user registrations every day that are simply spam and having to delete them.
    The issue is that i recently noticed that the Settings | Discussion | Disallowed Comment Keys dialog is edited everytime I enter a new stop word.
    This means that if anyone uses a string in the forum with a stop word, they cannot post.
    I have set it so that when a user registers, they have the status “subscriber”. I then manually assess if they are legit, then set them to participant so that they can post in the forum.
    Is there any way to set stop words without affecting the “Disallowed Comment Keys” dialog. I don’t want the stop words to affect accepted forum users.
    thx

    Not via this plugin no, and this is actually the very first item in the FAQ:

    That said, the ‘easy’ work around is not to add stop-words when you ban people, but the email domain. You aren’t meant to be using it for stop-words as that exact problem can happen (see the bit about accidentally blocking Cookie Monster in the FAQ).
