I’m getting really annoyed by all the comment spam for webhostgear and other sites on this server lately. If you notice anything that comes up as a 406 error please report it to me.
The new rule set helps stop comment spammers by checking for http and various other things in a post and bad keywords like adult stuff, etc.
So far it’s already caught one in the first few minutes the rule set was installed. I’ll try to make a public mod_security rule set available to visitors shortly but I can’t give away the kitchen sink ya know 
Would anyone be interested in a yearly subscription service where we supply a set of updated mod_security rules and other custom rule sets for their servers?
Email me and we can discuss.

There is a lot of websites that offer the mod_security rules on a free basis. We use our own things from our honeypot WP hosting site as well as gotroot rule set which has a few very basic - but important ones built in. Paying for the rules does seem silly. I think if you provide them free - this site would be getting very repeat users who are interested in this + bloggers who run into this problem find this info free and come to the site - so you’ll get more visits.
Meh.

I ve visited a great number of sites, which I want to close, just having opened them! On your site I have spent all my free time, and even not having noticed this. Thank you, guys!

I always have terrible trouble with comment-related plugins that require me to put some line in the comment loop; I can never seem to find the right spot. Can anyone tell me where I should put the php line in my comments loop? I haven not modified anything much, and I would be very grateful. Thanks!

Since one of the ideas is to split strings not into words, but hopefully into phrases more semantically informative than the words they are made of, doing that better should mean better suggestions, and avoiding what essentially are word n-tuples should make for smaller data and slightly faster querying.
