It's no different that adding a nofollow tag to external links IMO
Has anyone installed this and done nothing else and has seen positive results from it?

Some sections on my forum are mostly driven by RSS feeds from other external sites so I have lots and lots of links to other sites. Trust me .. I am seeing a big positive difference in what the mod is doing already on my site. I had once used the rel="nofollow" anchor tag attribute without any value-added noticed so I say stay clear of it.

I am monitoring this mod on my site and will provide updates later. So far, it works well for me.
