Terrablogs Problems Solved

It's been a weird month at the terrablogs sites: chattablogs, nolablogs, covblogs, etc. And you know who's to blame? George Bush. No, I'm kidding. It's the spammers.

After being thwarted by MT Blacklist, they got mean, and creative. They started spamming in the middle of the night, then they started crashing the server with their voodoo in order to spam us unencumbered. When the administrators (Josiah and the Posse) started fighting fire with fire, the evil spammers decided that if they couldn't have their way with Terrablogs, then NOBODY would enjoy it, and they started an ugly assault that forced an emergency upgrade to MT3. We lost commenting abilities for a day or so, but that's been restored. We're now on a nice, shiny new server that so far, is the cat's meow.

Things should be settling down now, and we can all get back to blissfully blogging about gorging on Christmas goodies and facing the horrors of the shopping mall in mid-December. Ya know. The usual.

Let Josiah know how much you 'preciate his hardwork, FREE hardwork, I should mention. The kid doesn't get paid for this, so give him a slap on the back, and drop a penny in the tipjar. You just don't get this kind of service at blogger.

Long live Terrablogs!!
