Comment Spam is starting to drive me nuts. Yes, I have MTBlacklist and I'm not afraid to use it. I think the answer is to sic pistol packing Tanya on them, though. I added a couple of sites to my blacklist this morning, and within five minutes I'd blocked seven comment attempts. My site traffic is up because now the little dears don't add one or two comments, they add ten or twelve. I'm sorry to say, but you can no longer use the word "poker" in the comments.
Yesterday I posted about Theresa Kerry, and now I'm the number seven search result for her at Yahoo! Isn't this blog thing great !?!
I'm not watching the Democratic Convention, and I hope to avoid the Republican one too. I think I'm with my fellow Americans on this one for a change.
Is it just me, but are the boys at Q and O adding posts faster than you can read them?
We were warned that The Passion of the Christ was going to increase anti-semitism, and it didn't. We were warned that concealed carry in Missouri would increase murders as traffic accidents and arguments over a can of peas wouldresult in wild west shootouts, and it didn't. I'm wondering why if the left worries about America being disliked in the world, they don't denounce Mikey Moore's 9-11 opus because it will increase anti-Americanism. Will Theresa Kerry tell the French to shove their un-Americanism? Hey, if the NYT could finally admit that they are indeed a liberal newspaper, anything is possible.
I finally had to install MTClose, because I couldn't keep up with the spam, even with Blacklist.
And I'm avoiding the conventions too. All the good parts get blogged anyway.
One day I'll have to check out all the MT add ons, but I guess I'll make time for MTClose. Thanks.
