Doing something about it

Posted on Tuesday 2 March 2004

I got sick and tired of freakin’ spammers clogging up this blog with comment spam… so I got MT-Blacklist. Oh yeah. This guy was pissed enough about comment spam to write a sweet plugin to automatically protect MT blogs from this crap. Oh, and it also reports back new spam reports to a central list so that if some scumbag tries to sneak one by, every user of MT-Blacklist will know about it.

Some other commenter on the plugin said that it makes killing comment spam fun, and I’ll agree with that. There’s something almost vindictive in clicking the despam button. Ahhh, should’ve done this months ago.

All clean now.
