Over recent weeks there has been a spate of comment spam on the site which has obviously been manually typed in by some idiots trying to increase the pagerank of their sites. Well I now plan to be far more agressive about comment spammers, unless you leave a real name and email address you will be blocked. If you leave a link to a website which is obviously not your own (in my view, this is not a democracy), it will be blocked. If I make a mistake then I apologise in advance, a simple email to me will rectify the problem.
Tip: Block any post with more than … links in it

It’s not so much the links in the posts, but the website of the commenter that’s the problem, I can’t think of an easy way of automating the filtering for that short of just removing the field altogether which would be a pity.
