Experimental project
This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.
Prevent spam before it happens.
This module is currently able to enqueue IP addresses of your visitors. It automatically sends them, 15 at a time, as specified by the documentation of the API it uses, to the webservice of http://www.stopforumspam.com/ in cron.
The result it gets is then evaluated using configurable settings, such as frequency (amount of times a 'hit' is made) and confidence (how confident the webservice is this is a spammer). Whether it is a spammer or hammer, the result is stored/cached for a configurable amount of time in the database.
The IP addresses get automatically added to the blocklist if safe mode is disabled and they get auto-removed when the status has expired.
Planned features for now:
- Report spammers to the webservice
- From experience, the hook_cron is too slow
- Implement own cron, e.g. run every 5 minutes, configurable
- Send specifiable amount of requests per cron run

Configs:
- Safe mode - disable autoblocking/autounblocking
- n% chance to be enqueued
- Minimum frequency
- Minimum confidence
- Cache results for n months
