English (US)   Sorry, folks  -  Categories: Announcements [A]  -  twv @ 11:23:55 am

There were over 60,000 spam messages in the comments on this blog.

Instead of killing them one-by-one, I destroyed all the comments, including the good ones.

Sorry, but I just wasn't going to do all the work required.

Now, I hope sometime this week I can find time to upgrade the software to preclude spammers from taking over my site.

A lot of people get worked up over email spam; I don't. It's easy to kill. But Web spam is harder to kill, and I do get upset about that. People who construct programs and robots to litter other people's sites with extraneous, off-topic links and messages won't get defense from me.
