Okay, that’s it! It’s time to do something about our posting security. I just deleted 121 spam comments that had accumulated overnight. Patrick, it’s time to “wewees da seekwet wepon!” (10 points to anyone that knows where that quote is from)

A tip to prevent spam: http://www.thepcspy.com/kittenauth. Don’t know if wordpress supports it or if there are plugins for it, but it’s a good protection. You can replace the pictures with something Myst-like.

I really don’t want to put a CAPTCHA on the site… I have an idea I’ve been meaning to run by you. If it doesn’t swing, I have a solution. Remember, we’re only getting SPAM so bad because our PR (0 -> 4) has climbed so highly in 6 months. That’s a good thing.

the quote is from the animated movie, An American Tail.

10 points for Joe. Joe, I hate to tell you this but the points here are much like the points on “Who’s Line is it Anyway”…they mean nothing. Still, kudos

If you don’t have it already, the Akismet plugin for WordPress is an excellent way to handle spam.

I also recommend Akismet. Before I started using Akismet I think I got 20 spam comments a day eventually, but now I rarely get any spam.

You could fry up the spam and eat it. It’s pretty delicious that way.

Wife: Have you got anything without spam?
Waitress: Well, there’s spam egg sausage and spam, that’s not got much spam in it.
Wife: I don’t want ANY spam!

Adrian, your An American Tail quote reminded me of another great movie quote:
“Wewease Woger!!” (appropriate quote too, considering the title of your post)
