+on Stepping up

All comments will now pass through me or two other (trusted) administrators from various other blog’s.
The amount of trolling i’ve been receiving, especially on some older touchier post’s has gotten a bit much, and I warned this would happen.

I hope to continue receiving great comments from all you people out there with something worthwhile digesting, and will happily allow your comments through for discussion.

loving work, loving money, loving my art, not really missing deviantART, flickR, nzgamer… have to sort out audioscrobbler, because last.fm is really just not working for me.

    You need something like http://frenchfragfactory.net/ozh/archives/2005/02/02/wordpress-plugin-auto-moderate-comments/

    I use it and it catches a lot of spam that Akismet would otherwise ignore – it goes to my comment moderation queue and once a week/fortnight or whenever I’m in the admin panel, I get Akismet to trawl the moderation queue and voila

    Maybe I should hurry up and get you onto tamati.blundells.co.nz

    Yeah, I’m kind of locked out of making any hosting changes at the moment… seems I forgot to pay my hosting bill for the last few months – and it’s only like $6 a month *slaps forehead* DURRRRRRRR

    Today is pay day though, I’m sure with my newfound reduction in drinking I can spare the $17.whatever to catch up, and I guess I’ll setup yet another automatic payment too. Then we’ll see if I can be motivated to take on supporting your domain too.

    Maybe I should draw you up an SLA ;)

    Okay, bill paid, AP created, one less thing for me to forget. Should be up and running tomorrow-ish. Are you able to do a database export from your admin interface?
