Project: Tightening Wordpess Comment Filters
Important!
Dear visitors,
This blog and the Tigarus.com network will be changing our website software in May (2024). There will be some down time and there will be a change to the webpage addresses.
We will also be removing the Anime blogs. The Rocksmith Songs website will be unavailable of a few weeks or months while I move the database to the new software.
At the moment we are running on Wordpress, the new software is an in-house project which is 57 times faster. It will also provide more freedom for development.
Thank you for understanding.

Purpose: To add strict validation and Spam filters to WordPress’s Comments and Trackbacks.
Description: To combat the on going battle of Spam and Spam Bots I have modified WordPress’s Comments and Trackbacks coding to include much stronger filters/validation, because WordPress basically has none.
The following validation filter’s have been added, please let me know if more is needed.
