Seems to me it's just an issue of how the wildcards are set up (if the program accepts them, etc)..

This mod is not to ban TLDs.

What you enter is automatically wildcarded. That is why you can't enter .ru and expect .rummy not to be banned.

From the settings screen for the mod..

NOTE: You do not need to enter the entire hostname. A partial match will result in a registration ban. So if you enter 'proxy', a hostname with 'I am a proxy' will be banned from registering.

The same holds true for useragents.

EDIT:

As an example, let's use googlebot.
It has a hostname of..

Code:

crawl-66-249-72-133.googlebot.com

So, all you would enter is googlebot in the hostname setting. Then all hostnames that have 'googlebot' in them will be banned from registering no mattter what else in in the hostname.
