You can from the search page. This one goes back to a better API being in place.

When I get all the template code working, there will be options for mods to examine users, refresh SFS.com data and act on that. In order to run proactive scanning against all the users against all SFS.com data, would require more work both on my time (I have a baby due in 6 weeks) and in cron execution time. Unless you have the Ajax cron mod installed, running a job like that would kill so poor users session. Maybe in v1+ Ill be able to add an automated pull from SFS.com of their IP lists. Anything more would be a lot more code. I want to get the next version out, working before baby is born because after that, well, I wont have much more time until I go back to work.

Congratulations This could be done manually for the time being, and wouldn't kill anyone's session that way. The suggestion is meant to be run after the fact. I'm just seeing correlating spammer info in my logs, and want to help flesh out the spammer patterns

Auto submit can be sorted and logs updated to reflect that, its not a big, as long as you have cURL installed. Without cURL, automated submission will be extremely difficult, something that can be done but something that Im not really wanting to code for.

Definitely wait for a better API from the site

main goals for the next couple of weeks, is to get the core rewrite sorted, the 2.6 and 3.7 template changes sorted so that they rewrite templates on the fly, allowing mods to view all the data about the user, do whois/google searches, updating SFS.com data and submitting them manually, better loggind support and statistics reporting. Auto submitting user data to SFS.com might sneak in there but any companion, posting, PM etc will have to wait until all that is stable.

I spend 4-5 hours a day on a train to/from work so my time is a bit limited but Im trying to get it all sorted and out asap.

Take your time man, we all appreciate the work you're doing!
