Tightening the spam screw

[urbpan]

Sorry, until further notice I'm theoretically screening all comments. Rest assured I will unscreen any legitimate comments (even if you call me a filthy cat-eating novelty music fan) as soon as I can. Supposedly my settings already screened any anonymous comments, but that was clearly not the case. Hopefully this idiotic micromanaging will be over soon.

Spamming has gone crazy. I checked the statistics for the spam filters on my (non-LJ) blog, and it says that there were *eighteen times* as many spam comments as there were legitimate comments. Fortunately, the Akismet spam filter is really good. It almost never misses a spam, and I'm not sure it *ever* mistakenly flagged a real comment as spam.

I refuse to believe you eat cats until I see the video.

Have you actually eaten a cat?
