					<description>I used to get a lot of comment spam, on various sites I'd built.

It was a pain having to recode everything just because a minority of idiots decided they would abuse something for monetary gain.

I don't know if a bot proof form exists, but fwiw, I changed all of the forms on one of my sites from vanilla html form objects, to javascripted document.write constructs and (touch wood) haven't seen one piece of comment spam since.</description>

					<description>Final thought...

Esrun, or do you prefer Nurse, you're only caught up in your own web of nonsense so just leave me alone and I'll leave you alone, what a concept.</description>

					<description>If you "couldn't care less" you wouldn't be here spouting your garbage rhetoric that nobody wants to hear?

Nobody cared about you until YOU stuck your nose in where you didn't belong and now YOU are now whining that peoiple are actually paying attention to your lame self.

Besides, what "PROOF" do I need that you haven't already posted?

You proclaim to be a "blackhat SEO web spammer" on your own ABOUT page, have SPAMMING scripts on your site, and easily traceable examples that you ran your own scripts, or do you have selective amnesia all of a sudden?

If I only quote your own web site, and I'm then incorrent because you posted lies, then you're the liar, not me as I can only operate within the confines of the known facts as posted by yourself, proclaiming to be a "blackhat SEO web spammer".

Advertisers online? I don't take have to look for any spamming morons as they hit MY site 24/7, so why would I take THAT personally when I've never had to look beyond my own server to find all the fodder I need to go on the offensive to protect myself against these so-called "advertisers".

Why don't you do evolution and your family tree a favor, which appears to need some serious pruning, and go take a romantic long walk off a short pier.</description>

					<description>Also an additional note to Incredibill. Okay fine, you may have been involved in stopping real crimes but I bet you don't drive around different stores each night and camp out trying to catch shoplifters. So why spend so much time trying to stop advertisers online.</description>

					<description>Incredibill, I think you have me misunderstood. I really couldn't care less about what spamhunters do, I'm not even a spammer. Sure I write about spam topics but I don't carry out spam myself. 

I couldn't care less about what you guys do as long as you follow the law. 

I think you all take this far too personally.

Lemat, I think you have completely missed the boat... filling what inbox with mail, spamming which spamhuntress page? 

You're all making comments about myself or others being spammers with no proof. Just because someone has "spammed" my website does NOT mean it was myself and just because I talk about spam does not mean i'm a spammer.

By your reckoning someone who had an interest in weapons and blogged about them must be a criminal carrying weapons.</description>

					<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;webspamming is legal, so quit calling us spammers.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Okaaay....  That's kind of like saying, "playing football is legal, so quit calling us football players."  Talk about a non-sequitur defense!</description>

					<description>Esrun - (web)spaming = sending unsolicted content using electronic media is illegal in my country. And the (web)spamers are still spamming me regardles of that.
If you are unsure why Spamhuntress is after you (you = spammers, plural) the answer is simple: bacause you have spoiled her pages/thrashed her mailbox. There would be no problem with her if you avoid spamming her. Simple, isn't it? You have created the spam. The spam created spamhunters. 

If you don't want to be chased by spamhunters - don't spam them.
If you don't want to break the law - don't spam places/countries where you would break the law.
If you don't want to get fined because of crossing on red light - don't cross the strreet on red light.
If you get spanked - don't complain. It was your intention to break the law/bahave not-social  and you were dreaming that nobody would notice.</description>

					<description>Perhaps you think trying to argue with and dissuade SpamHuntress in her efforts will impress your peers and your motives are just for self glorification, which is completely lame.

Obviously you don't understand why your pro-spam comments in an anti-spam blog are getting you unwanted attention, DUH!

A smart spammer would keep quiet.

Regarding real crime, I've been involved in stopping more than a few so don't talk about what you don't know about as you just embarass yourself.</description>
