Combatting Spam

In an effort to battle spam, I have implemented a script that closes old entries to comments. Not many people post comments after a month, so I have chosen that as my cut-off. If you care to comment on a post older than that, too bad. The spam is pissing me off so I had to do this.
I hope this helps otherwise I may go postal.

What really worked for me was to change the name of my comments script file. I haven’t had one piece of spam since since I did that months ago. Step two on this page explains how to do it.

Cool. Too bad I already closed all those posts. Oh well.
