Trying to crack down on spam

Posted by: Seth Ben-Ezra in Meta-conversation

While I’m honored (I guess) with all the spam comments that are coming my way, I’m starting to get tired of it. So, I’m turning on the “if this is your first comment then it’s moderated” feature. If you are real (and not a cabbage or something), then I will release your comment into the wild, and, hopefully, you won’t be bothered by this moderation thing anymore.

But what if I am a cabbage?

It’s a reference to the Principia Discordia. For example, the following:

The Sacred Order of THE DEFAMATION LEAGUE. Not much is known about the D.L., but they are very ancient and quite possibly were founded by Greyface himself. It is known that they now have absolute domination over all organized churches in the world. It is also believed that they have been costuming cabbages and passing them off as human beings.

- Abortion and politicsSeptember 5, 2008

But we all agree that [...]
