Spam Commenting is on the Rise!

Y’know I checked my comments four days ago and cleared them out. Since then I’ve got 1,008 spam comments, and four real comments, that’s just out of hand.

I’m not going to approve your spam comments so stop trying. If you want me to post a link to your site, if you want to advertise your site then hit the Contact button up top and maybe we can work something out. So you might as well just stop trying as they’re never going to get posted live, they’ll just keep getting deleted. That little sign up there says it all, No Spam, Today, Tomorrow, Ever!

On my other sites I’ve put capthcas on the comments, I guess I have to do that here as well. It worked very well and cut comment spam by about 95%, which is pretty good.

" True Blood is one of my favorite shows on TV, there’s just something about vampires that I’ve always liked, and no I don’t mean those sappy Twilight ones either. True Blood has done very well and with success comes themed accessories and more, one of them is from V-Moda called the Revamp In-Ear headphones and that’s what I’ve got for review today. If you’re a true Blood fan then you’ll want to continue reading and if not you can read on too as these headphones are fairly decent in sound and design. "

"If you were to think of a computer as a living thing I’d have to say that the power supply would be the heart of it. The heart supplies the blood or in this case the electricity to your computer system and just like a living organism if something goes wrong with the heart then it’s a major concern. Thermaltake has sent me over their new power supply tester called the Dr. Power II for review that can help you check your power supply for problems quickly and easily.  "

" Up for review today I’ve got something a bit out of the ordinary, but it’s still tech related I think and it’s certainly not what I might consider a toy, but you might. Arctic has sent me over the Land Rider 403 Remote Controlled Leopard Tank and I have to say it’s a just a blast to use. The land Rider 403 comes completely assembled so all you have to do is charge the battery and start driving and shooting. The tank shoots shells by the remote control. The canon can be moved up and down and it’s attached to a turret that can rotate left and right. The Land Rider 403 is much more than a toy, it’s high quality and highly detailed remote control tank that I’m sure you’ll enjoy."

Quote:
" The Kinect is a great addition to the Xbox 360, it adds a more physical aspect to gaming and it’s just a lot of fun really. The one problem with the Kinect is that it needs  a lot of room to work, and people with small living rooms or apartments are going to have a problem with it. Nyko has come up with a solution for that and it’s called the Zoom and it does what it sounds like, it zooms the Kinect lenses in so you can play in a smaller area. I’ve got one and I’ve used it for a while and I found that it really does work as advertised. I’ve got a large living room, but it still felt a bit cramped with the couch in the way, with the Nyko Zoom I don’t have to worry about the couch anymore really. "
