MT-Blacklist at work

Quietly and efficiently, MT-Blacklist continues to do its work. Simply great stuff.

I see you've got some old blacklist entries in there. You may update your blacklist from the master blacklist.

Grrrr.... http://www.jayallen.org/comment_spam/2003/11/staying_up_to_date

If you get a lot of these types of followup comments, you may want to post an blurb near the comment form telling people what happens to submitted HTML.

yes, I know there is a preview button, but you know, we are all inherently lazy for better or worse.

Well, you know ... this way, I get more comments. ;-)

Seriously, though: You are right, thanks for the suggestion and the blacklist hint.

Jay Allen's wonderful MT-Blacklist that helps to avoid penis pill spam and thousands of other idiotic comments on MT-blogs is hot and installed... there's also a documentation on updating automatically with some addons... But Jay talks about version 2 ...
