 WebSTUMP has a capability to process certain articles automatically,
-without involving a human moderator. For instance, if you decide that a
-certain thread has strayed off topic, and you no longer want ANY articles
-from that thread to ever appear, you can add the Subject of that thread
-to the list of bad threads. That will cause all submissions with that
-subject header to be automatically rejected.<P>
+without involving a human moderator. For instance, you may whitelist
+particular posters, meaning all articles that they submit (except
+those containing words on the Suspicious Words List) will be posted
+without requiring any further intervention.<P>
 
 Generally, WebSTUMP users can do filtering by the following criteria:
 
 <UL>
   <LI> By poster
-  <LI> By Subject
   <LI> use the list of suspicious words
 </UL>
