Blacklist by poster?

Help & Support

Is there a way to blacklist by poster name? There’s a relatively new poster named AutoMasterShare who’s botching up the works big-time with robo-posts of good scene 1080p WEB-DLs that have completely trashed parity files. Since sabnzbd doesn’t seem to have the option to only get parity if unRARing fails, I’d rather just not deal with his posts and the mess they make in my sabnzbd temp folder. None of his posts will ever pass a parity check, but I can’t just turn off PAR2 checking completely or I’ll wind up with an even bigger mess when a proper post just needs a block or two to fix.

Alternatively, if any of you know this fella and could let him know he’s peeing in the pool, that would be even better. He’s the best poster of 1080p WEB-DLs except for this little hiccup. He dumps to a.b.warez with the name I mentioned at gmail. I and others have been trying for weeks to get him to fix whatever went wrong. His posts were all perfect until sometime mid-November :frowning:

If you can somehow identify this poster from the nzb, I think you could potentially do this with a pre-queue script in sabnzbd.

I have no clue how sonarr would respond to that by the way. Let’s say sonarr sends an nzb, and your pre-queue script decides that sab should not download it. Then it doesn’t even enter the queue…

Similarly you could use release restrictions within Sonarr to do the filtering, before it even gets to SAB if the nzb is identifiable.

Unfortunately, there’s nothing unique to his NZBs. It appears he’s just dumping everything as-is and sticking AMS at the beginning of the subject line.

In the meantime, I’ve unchecked “Post-Process Only Verified Jobs” in sabnzbd in the hope that his posts never will need to be repaired.
