Sorry All You Gamblers Out There
But after a spate of spam comments lately (more than fifty in the last three days, not counting the ones caught by my filters), I'm now barring any comment which uses the words 'casino' or 'poker'. Words cannot describe how fucked off I am at having to do so.
I use MT-Blacklist to try and avoid these, which does a sterling job of checking those incoming comments, but which is at the end of the day always going to be a step behind human ingenuity in coming up with quirks to banned URLs. Why hence I'm taking a more blanket approach.
I hate the people who perpetrate these things more than I do those who deal in email spam.
