1. You're missing a curly brace.

2.

var $post = $(post);
var $name = $post.find('.name');

change this to var post and var name.

What >>3118 said, except that a dollar sign in front of jQuery elements is considered proper and correct, so keep using that. I would like to add, though, that you would probably appreciate using CoffeeScript:

$ ->
	spamDetect = (post) ->
		$post = $(post)
		$name = $post.find '.name'
		$name.text 'SAGE' if $post.find('.email').length > 0

It compiles to JavaScript through Node.js, which any seasoned web developer should already be using, and should only take a couple minutes to set up and get going.

If you are already familiar with Python, and like the language, you will definitely find CoffeeScript to be enjoyable.

use a fucking debugger dude
