I think it should pretty much go without saying that I am no fan of spam.

Both kinds.

I don't like the kind of ground "meat" covered in the gellatenous substance and I ABSOLUTELY FREAKING HATE the kind I get in my e-mail and now - in my comments.

I had no idea such stupidity existed until I sat down about a month ago to do some site clean up and found that my comments had been spammed a totaly of 547 times. 547 TIMES!!!!!

So I deleted them and the next day do you know that I had 247 more?? THESE PEOPLE NEED REAL JOBS!

(The shouting should indicate the type of day I am having)

So, anyway.

I recieved an e-mail asking why my comments were closed on older posts. And the reason is to stop the spamming. I don't want my site to be an advertisement for Viagra, Free Cell Minutes, Free trips to Babboonistan, or anything else. So when a post is a few days old, I close the comment feature. It's nothing personal to the reader, it's just something I have to do to keep people like Big Dicks 'R Us out of my way.

That's all.

Please commence with your day.
