Um… Sorry I Called You A Bastard

blog anti-spam messageMy apologies to anyone who tried to post a comment to my blog today. I’m working on a new anti-spam hack for Wordpress and due to my sloppy-coding, any attempt to post a comment resulted in the message: You are a rotten blog-spamming bastard. Go away. :D

I didn’t notice the error at first because it didn’t effect my own comments(since I was logged in). The anti-spam code is fixed now and ready for the testing phase. Hopefully only the real "blog-spamming bastards" will get that message now ;-)

    Right now, I’m just using my own "home-made" solution. It’s working pretty well so far. I haven’t had a single spam.(knocks wood)

    Sorry about that. I didn’t mean to be mean and fill your wonderfull blog with crap. Are you going to publish your new plugin?

    The script only stops automated posting, Jarno, such as "spammer scripts". If you actually manually enter all the info, including the code, then of course it will go through :-) But obviously, 99% of spammers are not going to go through all the trouble of manually visiting and posting on each blog.

    The reason I have not published the "spam stopper"- is that it’s not in "plugin" form. You have to make some slight edits to the Wordpress core files, so I’m not sure that most people would want to do that. :(
