WordPress Development Blog › 2.0.2 Security Release – Well I may be upgrading to this version soon if the ‘bad reports’ were unfounded.

Spammed comments

Posted on Wednesday, March 22nd, 2006 at 16:24 in Development No Comments »

I really have had enough of receiving spam comments to any of my posts, this is a small site that doesn’t get many updates or daily views but everyday do I recieve 5-10 emails requesting that I moderate a comment that is just an advert for some sexuality enhancing drug… What are they trying to tell me?

If any reader of this blog knows of a way to stop this (prefeably with keeping the comments functionality) please add a comment.

Jim please note I do moderate all comments before they go onto the site so you’ll not be having fun posting rude words….

Unless it’s funny.

Phone Sales

Posted on Wednesday, March 22nd, 2006 at 16:18 in blog No Comments »

I’ve found a new way to get rid of unwanted telephone sales calls… This time it really works and doesn’t tie up your phone line as some ideas do. It’s very cheap and rids you quickly of the call.

Answer the phone then have a coughing fit, as loud as you can and make it sound like your trying to get your lungs out of you chest. It sure worked for me, the sales call from Orange, an international call at that, was ended very quickly by the caller hanging up on me.

Shame 10 minutes later I had to phone Orange to get a Port Authorisation Code. I guess I had to pay for that call.
