SPAM

I recently thought that moderating every new comment was silly. So a few months ago I made it so that comments on blog posts that were 7 days old or less were instantly posted. I few minutes ago I checked my blog and discovered a new comment on yesterday's post. It was all in Asian characters, and they were all links to sex sites. I got spammed. So now I have changed it back to all comments are moderated before they show up on my blog. I just wanted to let everyone know why I did that. I don't like that there are people like that out there who have to ruin nice things for others.

    Bummer! I don't have mine moderated yet, but just like you as soon as I see a spam I'll be instituting that annoying little captcha feature.
