Sick o' spam

Taking a cue from Barry at Alas, a Blog, I have banned the words "poker," "holdem," and "blackjack" from my comments. Sorry, folks, but these spammers are some tenacious cockroaches.

Comments (4)

Is there no funny text box you can use to cut down on the rif-raf? That's why I like my situation. There's a very thick, gooey layer of Velveeta between me and the spammers.

Based on the comment on the post above, looks like you might have to ban the word "escort" too. (Which would be a shame, in case the subject of Jeff Gannon ever comes up.)

[The spam referred to has been removed. -- Ed.]

If I were you, I'd also add 'craps', 'slots', and 'casino' to the list as well. (I'm also filtering for all three in addition to your list and more...)
