 * Hi,
 * Been running WF for a few months now and like like 😉
 * Soon be getting the Pro version
 * Anyway, with regards email addresses; where can I ad a list to ban email extensions
   such as’ [@whatever](https://wordpress.org/support/users/whatever/).ru ‘ etc?
 * Site is getting swamped with new ‘registered user’ when in fact, its spam injection/
   registrations.
 * Many Thanks

 * Hi,
 * We currently do not offer the ability to block users from registering like you
   describe. We’ve had others ask so it could appear in a future release but I can’t
   guarantee it or give a timeframe. Here is a link to a previous post with a possible
   workaround. Hope this helps!

 * Hi Brian,
 * Thanks for that,
 * As the name implies, ‘Wordfence’ is a security wall to help protect against such
   matters right?
 * So why, being probably the biggest issue with WP users, does it not offer what
   I feel should be such an intrinsic and important aspect of this plugin?
 * I feel sure that including such a control, many users would be running o your
   door (figuratively speaking) to buy a key.
 * Please, would you raise this mater with you colleagues for inclusion?
 * Many Thanks

 * [@rik0399](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rik0399/): Yep, we’ve added your
   input to our internal system, on the previous feature request that Brian had 
   linked to above. The reference number for this feature request is FB873. When
   we get more requests for a single feature, it’s more likely to be implemented,
   but we get hundreds of requests, so they are prioritized based on a number of
   factors.
 * The premium version does have the ability to block traffic from selected countries
   altogether. Although it won’t help with the email addresses from specific countries
   if they are signing up from a non-blocked country, a lot of spam sign-ups do 
   come from other countries that might not be part of your site’s intended audience.(
   If you want more details on this you can email us at presales (at) wordfence.
   com )
 * Thanks for your input!
