dumb spammers

Well I knew this would not work. I put the comment system fully public for anyone to post comments on news. While allot of people were using it positively, there was allot of people spamming it, particularly some time lastnight. At least 20 or so spam posts were made to advertise some ugly looking site. So I did what I had to do - people have to be registered now to use the system. Kind of bad that guy had to ruin it for everyone else though.

While I was at it I also fixed a few flaws in the system that apeared when I fixed a possible vulnubility. (I sound like microsoft...this scares me)

Sometimes things have to be abused in order to solve problems. That's why God invented malware.
