Husky and those damn spammers
November 11, 2006
This morning Hayley, Sister, Bradley Bradley and myself went to Husky for breakfast. It was probably the best breakfast I have ever had there, it was so tasty. I had a Western Delux (western sandwich, fries, coleslaw) with a side of sausage - oh and a tea to drink, which was really weak even though I kept the bag in the whole time. Good times either way.
I then went home to work on a new filtration system for the damn spammers who have been spamming my journal to death. I have received 1086 total comments in my journal since I have posted my new site at the end of August. There have been 20 actual comments not spam posted which means that I have received a total of 1066 spam messages posted on my site since August 24th. In the past 24 hours I have received 337 spam message postings. I have been doing live monitoring of the postings but with that many messages being posted live monitoring was not enough at all, I needed something new to slow them down or stop them completely.
So I have posted a new feature that you will see when you use my comment tools, which should slow the spammers down for a bit until a newer more thought out system is rolled out hopefully for next weekend.
Cheers,
Mike
