A special place in hell….

That’s all I want for them.

Comment spammers.

A special place, where I can cheerfully roast marshmallows over their bodies.

I’ve been helping a friend with her blog hosting service. Through my misunderstanding of MT-Blacklist and how it works, things got out of hand in the comment department. OK, “out of hand” is a bit of an understatement:

Blog A has 152 entries and 956 comments.
Blog B has 329 entries and 1659 comments.
Blog C has 25 entries and 156 comments.

These are the current numbers AFTER I’ve worked nearly the day through, cleaning up the database that seems to be running on nearly-dead rodent power. Biggest hindrance to my work? I can only delete 5 comments at a time. Otherwise, the database pukes on me.

BAH!

Think I’ll talk to her about converting everyone over to WordPress.

1230AM update:

Blog A – down to 556 comments
Blog B – 1116
Blog C – 108

So no matter HOW frustrated I get, I can see progress.

3PM Friday update:

Blog A – 64
Blog B – 344
Blog C – 6

    PLEASE bug me with it! 99% of the problem is that you’re the only one who complained – I had ABSOLUTELY no idea it was this bad!
