In my mind, I envi­sion spam­mers as the “badguys”. They lurk in the shad­ows behind dump­sters and in alley­ways. Their leader who prob­a­bly resem­bles a cross between Martha Stew­art and Jonathan Win­ters stands before them shout­ing her (or it’s) plans for world­wide spam dom­i­na­tion. Her fol­low­ers cringe as her words spread across the room like mildew. Evil music spins in the back­ground on an old record player while they all shout in uni­son, “Destroy. Anni­hi­late. Crip­ple communication.”

And some­where across the city stand­ing proudly on a statue is Jay Allen (the Spam­i­na­tor), the new kind of super­hero. A man who fights back against spam, push­ing it aside and clear­ing the way for communication.

After suf­fer­ing the headache of receiv­ing over a hun­dred var­i­ous spam com­ments last week I believe I’ve found my fix. Uti­liz­ing Jay Allen’s excel­lent MT-Blacklist fil­ter I’ve suc­cess­fully imple­mented it into this site.

This means another road­block for all of you vicious spam­mers who find it appro­pri­ate to leave bland com­ments like:

“Nice site.“
“Good site.“
“I like your arti­cle.“
“Will you marry me?”

The dark­ness sub­sides (for now).
