Presto’s Ramblings

“I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” -Thoreau

Death to Spam!

July 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment

As you all know, I’ve been offline for a little while I work on some stuff.  When I went to check on my blog, I discovered that I had over 500 spam comments to deal with.  The spam filter caught them all, but I had to waste a lot of time sorting through them to see if there were any legit comments among them.  Because of this, I unfortunately now have to require that you register before you can comment.  This unfortunate, because I wanted to allow anonymous comments.  You can still post anonymously if you use a throwaway email address to register.

I’m still offline, so I will still be scarce for a little while.  I hope to get back to posting soon.  There is a lot that I want to share with you.

    But you see, Preston, we need Government because without the Government spammers would just overrun our mail boxes and blog comments with spam and… oh wait, that already happens.

    Welcome back man! How are you doing?
