…to be blog spammer.
Spam Karma 2 has been doing a phenomenal job taking care of all of the comment spam that comes this way. Though I’m occasionally tempted to turn it off just to get a few hundred actual comments here - would take maybe a day or two based on the reports SK2 sends me. 
My contact form is another beast altogether. It’s a little home-spun thing, so nothing gets filtered. But, nothing gets publicly posted either, of course. Because It’s… A… Contact.. Form!
Not a guestbook.
Not a forum.
Just a simple little contact form. You fill it out. It sends what you posted to me as an email. I respond to the message.
Generally, I get a handful of spammers attempting to ‘comment’ via that form every week, and the futility of the exercise always amazes me. But like I said, just a handful.
But today? Today was different. Today, I found 247 spam ‘comments’ waiting in my inbox. From the same IP. Over a span of three+ hours.
It took me less than 10 seconds to select them all and delete. At least my form tied up one of those miscreants for a while. You can thank me later…
