Re: [FFmpeg-devel] trac spam
Perhaps the regex search is performed on the rendered text as opposed to the source text? Taking the spam comment on #2104 as an example, the spammer appears to be using the `[ ]` or `[[|]]` markup, therefore `http` does not appear in the rendered text. But on the other hand, the regex filter did match two times in the spam comment in ticket 2776. Why? This comment was only accepted after the spammer solved the captcha.

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] trac spam
IIRC each regex give -10 so multiple matches give more. Let's assume we have a long keyword like "concretevictoria". Nobody uses this keyword in a normal text. A false positive is almost impossible. I could search for "concretevictoria", "concretevictori." and "concretevictor.." and get -30 points. Or possibly it would also work if I search for "concretevictoria" three times? The idea is to give long keywords a higher weight. I'm not sure if this idea is acceptable, that's why I'd like to ask for your opinions before I do it.

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] trac spam
IIRC each regex give -10 so multiple matches give more. So far, the search strings contain only combinations of keywords, for example "concretevictoria". False positives are almost impossible. I could add shorter keywords, for example "concrete" and "victoria". Then we would get multiple matches, but also a few false positives. Especially for people from Canada.

IIRC each regex give -10 so multiple matches give more. The problem is more fundamental do we allow users to override spam mis identification ? we can reduce the captcha score but then someone will hit a case where she cannot post valid content That means we then need a method to catch these and do something about them Its not as if 20 fails and 18 is going to work, the captcha score would have to be dropped to 8 for this one case you talk about here. I think the captcha works as intended. It adds cost to the spammer I doubt its economic for spammers to solve a captcha for having some spam up for a few hours. Again we can change all these scores but theres a minimum where its least work and deleting spam is work as much as dealing with users who cannot post So if you have some argument that a change in scores would reduce spam with no valid users lost in the last 12months thats a much stronger argument Another way would be to try a change and monitor what happens, do you want to monitor all failed submissions for a few months ? either way tuning these numbers requires some form of feedback mechanism otherwise we would not truly know if we did something smart or stupid thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Rewriting code that is poorly written but fully understood is good.

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] trac spam
I've just tested the regex filter with a posting in ticket 2776. This
test was not successful.
I thought that the second entry from the end of the list should have
matched:
(?i)regards.{0,5}http
In words: Switch to case insensitive, search for "regards" followed by 0
to 5 of any characters, followed by "http".
What's wrong with the search string?

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] trac spam
Please have a look at the Spam Filtering / Monitoring page. One of the spammer's postings was rejected, because it contained a blacklisted pattern in Regex filter and got -10 points. But 20 seconds later the same posting was accepted, because the spammer was successfully verified by Captcha and got +20 points. Does that make sense? Can we change that a successful capcha gives +20 points?
