Out of Egypt:

In the spam arms race, looks like it's time for comment moderation...

It's too bad that we have to have comment registration in order to stop spam, but it looks like it'll be a good thing overall. Definately better than having the site going down every few days and having the wonderful people at Coptix working their butts off just to clear out all the comment spam. I remember back when I didn't imagine there even was such a thing as comment spam.

According to Josiah, the spammers were pretty mad at us for actually taking the time to clear their graffiti out of our neighborhood and they basically did a DDoS attack earlier today. But with MT3, they're not going to be able to come into our neighborhood anymore. (I hope.)
