Well, mostly.
I have had a crazy adventure since about May/June. This site almost died thanks to massive comment spam and my flat stupidity with Jay Allen’s MT Blacklist plugin for MovableTpe.
Everything was working fine until one day the old version of MT Blacklist went crazy on me. So I Upgraded MovableType and instead of running MT Blacklist, I decided to approve/disapprove every single comment… but when you’re averaging a hundred spammed comments a day, you get disillusioned pretty darn fast. So I decided to install MT Blacklist… and that’s where things went under the meat cleaver.
I won’t go into any more details, because I have no desire to relive that. Screwing around with this site was one of my primary hobbies for the past few years, but all the massive troubleshooting I’ve had to do pretty much killed my joy.
But I’m back now.
In fact, to prove it, I’m going to go ahead and write something else! Something way more interesting! And informative! And…!
Okay, it will probably suck.
UPDATE: Apparently, I imagineered most of my problems. It really was only temporarily fixed. I was just one of many who seem to be having problems with mt-comments.cgi overloading my server.
