Evil Spammers Begone! ... (Evil Housesdust too)

To my friends here:

In general, I love it if people visit my old posts and leave comments--real ones, anyway.

If anyone sees a post they love and finds comments disabled, it's because the spammers decided it was a good place to leave lots of comments for me to delete. I have better things to do with my time--so if you want to comment on one of those entries, send a message or comment here or something, ok?

Thanks!

To the evil spammers: I'm not going to unscreen your mis-spelled advertisements and phishing attempts, so stop wasting my time (and yours)!

Now, back to house cleaning...

Deleting spam comments is NOT a satisfactory break from OMG-it's-almost-winter-heating-season cleaning.

I don't remove the post, I just disable comments. I don't get many comments on old posts anyway, so my friends are not very likely to be inconvenienced.

Yes, they do go find another one, so I don't disable the comments to that location unless I get more than one or two--but six in as many minutes, and that's that!
