Brian's progress on Specialty Gamer

The spam kills me!

With the anti-spam plugins in place, I still am averaging a spam comment per day.  Distressing to me, because I don't even average one real comment per day yet...  so I added various "porn" type words to the spam blacklist typically only used in spam type gibberish messages.  Hopefully it makes a difference.

I did notice at least one spam message was caught and automatically blocked so far.

Thinking maybe about adding a sender verification type thing where a person has to enter in a word to submit a comment.  I hear that websites do that nowadays to combat automated comments, which supposedly are easy for real people to do opposed to zombie bots.
