Today I saw 3 incoming comments on my blog. Wow! I thought, never had so many in one day! Then... saw they were automated post just to put a link to some stupid videpoker site...
For now I turned off automatic comments but I think I'll give up soon on my blog, since there are people so stupid around that can ruin everything :(

BAH!!!

Spammers ruin everything. It's ridiculous.

Yeah, we were overrun with those the last couple days. I deleted over 100 yesterday alone. Ack! I noticed that all of ours came from the same IP address, but I'm told blocking a single IP is a bit more difficult with a shared server.. hmm. Well, apparently our guy is working on it.

But hey, it could be worse. Even though we had a lot spam posts, no single story had more than 2. At least they didn't carpet bomb each post with dozens.
