BLOWING RASPBERRIES AT SPAMMERS

My archives have been hit by spammers. OK, I'll admit they are "polite"; congratulating me on my content, blah blah and saying how interesting they find my site. Then they leave links to their own sites.

I tried ignoring them, but the hits are increasing. So, for the time being, I'm going to have to moderate the comments until things settle down.

Hopefully they'll get tired and will go after someone else.

I have WordPress too (with comments wide open), but I dunno if it uses AKISMET or not. Most of the spam gets snared and held for moderation. A small portion of the spam gets posted, but because the comments' management function is so slick and easy to use for deletion, it hasn't yet annoyed me enough to tighten up access.

I don't understand one word of what everyone is talking about, but I just wanted to say hi - since I'm here! :)
