It seems that we have a blog spamming outbreak on our hands.

First, poor Miggy got hit, and she got hit hard.  More than a half-dozn of her articles were violated with spammy trash inviting us to play online poker or order controlled substances via the internet. Miggy fought a good fight, asking them politely to please stop...but to no avail.  They kept on.

Today, I saw 3 more articles that had been spammed too.  Miggy is not the ony victim of this awfulness, the spammers are branching out.  no-one is safe; we are all potential victims.

We need to put a stop to this raping of our articles.  We need to nip this in the bud before we have a full-blown epidemic on our hands.

It seems these spammers are all 'anonymous users'...I'm going to edit all my articles so that only registered users can respond to them until the spammers are dealt with.  I don't like to do it, but it seems to be my only option. 

I also want to make it known that any spamming of my article will result in immediate deletion of the offending response, and if possible, I will blacklist the perpetrator of the spam.

My fellow bloggers, I urge you to do the same.
