I’ve been dealing with an outrageous amount of comment spam on this blog lately, despite not updating it very often. So this is just a reminder that I’ve got comment moderation enabled, which means that comments get emailed to me for approval before they show up. After having to log in and remove over 100 spam comments in the past week or so (each of which generates an email in my inbox) I’ve decided to add some words to the blacklist, meaning that if these words appear in your comments they’ll be deleted and I’ll never even see them.
Not to worry though, none of the words on the blacklist show up in legit comments. Anybody looking to discuss ringtones, “swingers” or any of a wide variety of prescription drugs is out of luck, I’m afraid. Everybody else should be fine.
