Hi all, Lately I've been working on yet another project (besides gnome-hearts, the jukebox and odf-xslt): A comment spam filter system for blogs that's compatible with SpamAssassin rules. It also does baysian filtering (based off bogofilter) and DNSBL. I need a name for it. I already thought up "Sicarius", which I really like, but it's .com/.org domain name is taken by domain squatters (how I despise that folk). Sicarius is latin for Assassin which I thought was a nice tie-in to SpamAssassin. I chose to mimic SpamAssassin because they have vast amounts of great filtering rules that I can re-use. But I needed a separate implementation because blog comment spam is sufficiently different from e-mail spam that I can't use a stock SpamAssassin to do the filtering for me. So, do you have any other suggestions for a name? Thanks in advance! |

TheEnforcer Do_It_My_Way HouseRules Bouncer Murder_Inc The_Silencer I suspect none copyrighted nor expected to be taken. I have not checked, they tend to get taken upon any interest. If you had previously checked for availability of your preferred name, wait a couple of weeks and check again. Take it immediately if it becomes free. |

How about Mr Teatime pronounced Te A Tar Me, the only assassin in the known universe to have attempted the assassination of both the Hogfather and Death. |

Haha, that's a great suggestion Tracyanne. I love Teatime. I even have Hogfather on DVD :-) |

Well, it makes for a nice pun :-) Deviating from it, bs-assassin could be nice as well... Thanks for the tip! |

Hi brianna, welcome. Just put your 3 h'pence in any where you like. |

it might be the cynic in me, but the generic comment leads me to think bri might be a spammer (i've seen too many of them on my site) |

Funny way to spam, it really achieves nothing, not that spamming does anything usefull either. |

@tracyanne: That's because the forum strips out HTML tags. I bet you 10 to 1 that the "Social Bookmarking" line was a link. |

There's an amusing bit of irony in this thread. |
