All respect and no restraint

Hackers, please pay attention

I go through my site logs and I am amazed at the randomness of the attempts to break into the joint.

This is not an ASP site. It's a LAMP arrangement. There are no URLs that will read a remote site and automatically post whatever it finds. It's not an ecommerce site, there are no pricing scripts. It is not a Wordpress site either. And I really don't see the point of just making up URLs, but then I don't spam for a living.

Your only real hope is to actually register...get and return the email with the password. Then you can post stuff until I find you, which ought to take no more than an hour after your first spam. There was one really determined sort that posted bullshit until all the links of threads with anti-Hillary comments fell off the Live Discussions list. That sort of thing is cleaned up with one bulk erase. Though I wrote a bit of code to keep that particular person from registering ever again.
