comments are back

23 12 2004

So, this is what I hope will be the final compromise in my long and bloody battle against comment spam: I found a plugin for MT called mt-close2 which allows you to close off comments on entries older than a specified no. of days, and in particular categories - I am so grateful to the person who made this script I could kiss him/her. A lot.

So all current posts are now open slather for comments.

And they’ve been back all day and, near as I can see, no-one’s bothered to say anything. Well Yay I say. Yay for the democratisation of your ideas and work, and yay for one more step towards the resolution of the spam problem. I think I have something to say about this but I have been drinking and everything on the inside of my head is fuzzy.

Man, using the word “yay” sounds really unmanly…

Yo Josh!

Thanks for the pics mate. Sweet stang.

Jean,

I tried to post a comment yonks ago about the ProAm report you posted a link to… I found it interesting they didn’t mention the little 1986 book _Organizing around enthusiasms: Patterns of mutual aid in leisure_ by Hoggett and Bishop. Looks like the exact same stuff!?!?!?! I dunno…

Josh…you’re _way_ manly, and a fuzzy head might put us on par for a change. Glen…I will definitely check out that book, I promise. Especially since you’ve mentioned it, I dunno, about a million times now ;) Thanks for christening my comments. I feel reborn.
