………that says “Hey spammers, come here and post” ????? I didn’t think so. I’ve ned three ip’s this week, two being from this loser who obviously doesn’t get the message that I don’t want him here. I’m seriously thinking of fixing it to where all comments will go into a queue where I’ll have to approve them before they appear. I know, it’s stupid and I really shouldn’t have to do it. I don’t want to do it, but I hate trolls and it seems that I’m getting more and more of them every day. And yes, I did rewrite two of those comments. You got a problem with it? Get over it! This is my blog, I’ll do what the heck I want to. I’ll keep ning ip’s and editing all the comments until you guys get the point and go away.
Have you seen this solution to comment spam in MT?

Good luck, girlfriend. I actually like the comment queue — I don’t have to worry about a cat-fight going on in my comments while I’m enjoying dinner with my family.
Not that it’s happened. Really.
If I just had a “normal” (normal is a setting on my dryer) comment troll it wouldn’t be so bad, but as you know from my tantrum a couple of days ago, this person is “real life” and damnit, I’m NOT pulling my blog down because SHE can’t get over the fact that her past is NOT my problem.
Sorry. Didn’t mean to blog in your comments. If you decide to implement the comment queue and need anything — just holler. I’m glad to help.
P.S. I think YOUR blog is wonderful! I’m what they call a “lurker” to a lot of blogs. Aheh.
Love,

I get tons of spam on the Tell ABC guestbook, I just delete them and ban the IP, even any site with the first half of that IP.
Don’t ban me!
I’d like to have just a few trolls, just for fun…
LOL Carl, I would never ban you. :) You can have mine if you promise to treat them right, feed them every day, pet them, and change their litter boxes once a week.
Hmmmmmmm…
A lurker? Am I one? Is that someone that reads a lot of blogs, but doesn’t have their own? Just curious. It could be a good thing, at least then I could be a part of a group…LOL
I love lurkers *hugs* :) It’s just the trolls that post porn spam that I can’t stand.
Kim du Toit screens all his messages, but he answers all comments via e-mail. Way too intensive for me. Just ignore ‘em.
I’m not trolling, but I would be remiss not to comment on your “fresh” redo of your site.
Girl, you need to go set up a Blog Consulting Business. As you know and I have said before, you are tops in every way!
You put the rest of us bloggers to shame…I hang my head in envy and embarrassment…you have set the bar for excellence.
