Dealing with spam?
I took the liberty of closing the comment sections on all the old posts, since they were getting seriously clogged with spam. I also tried mass deleting of spam on a couple of posts, but I think the ridiculous volume of spam overloaded things since it gives an internal error when "rebuilding" the files for the site.
Short of installing some plugins to screen comments (Damian?), I think we can make this blog usable again if the author of each post just makes sure to manually close out comments after a few days and manually deletes spam during that time.
Any thoughts?
