MetalMan	Bloody spammers! Here I thought my site was increasing in popularity and instead it was those hellish spambots causing outages! BAAAH! -=-=- ---------------------- Science, development and SciFi ----------------------

Jayenkai	I recently changed AGameAWeek and my Archive to Disqus comments, and you should see how big of a drop in "visitors" I've had!!! Slightly disturbing that about 90% of my server load is going on all the spambots. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

MetalMan	Yeah I wasn't aware of how much activity from spambots was going on until I started noticing 508 http errors occuring several times each hour... Now I'm down to having the site down between 4-5 am, but hopefully I managed to block the bot from accessing my site again.. I kind of think I could have spent these couple of hours better than going through access logs just to setup a decent spambot filter! -=-=- ---------------------- Science, development and SciFi ----------------------
