Late Moes this Week
Hey everyone!
Sorry to do this, but due to DISTRACTING CIRCUMSTANCES my writing process for the Moe strips has been lethargic. The daily schedule will still be maintained, but with the strips going live later in the day. Instead of leaving the F5ers guessing, I’m just going to set the late update time of 8:00PM EST for today, Thursday and Friday.
In some fantastic news, my plea for assistance was answered by the generous help of several fans of the site! MrStranger came around and coached me through code hunting, exposing the terrible disease that afflicted Firman Productions and hijacked its google results. MrStranger, you are the tops! And then Solidsprite came to aid and eradicated the bad code completely, and is now working on a redesign for the whole site! Let’s all be super excited about this, because his skills are fantastic (SOLID) and I’m so glad he’s joined my crew that was formerly one person.
Unfortunately since updating WordPress, the spam comments have been incessant. They’re caught by a filter, but it’s starting to become an unrealistic amount to review carefully. If I end up missing a legitimate comment that was erroneously flagged by the filter, I apologize. But also, stop signing your legitimate comments with links to SexyOnlineDegreesCheap.ru

Oh, more spam? Sounds like there was probably one more source in the database. Perhaps Solidsprite and I should coordinate? I would be honored to join your two-come-three-man crew. Just email me a way to contact him and I’ll get back to work. I would love to talk to Solidsprite and see what techniques he used to clean up that viral mess.

Look Mr. Firman,
I can’t help that there are online degrees that are both sexy AND cheap, and that I feel that I should inform others about these cheap degrees that are sexy online.

Do you not use the Akismet plugin? That has been wonderful for dealing with spam, for me. Much better than WP’s straight-up spam detection.

Stranger, I think this is probably typical of this sort of site, just from bots leaving messages on a comment system with no security.
Spinn, I do use Akismet! It’s on by default actually, I’m pretty sure. But the queue the filter uses just gets so big now, I can’t read every entry to make sure they’re all legitimately spam (which they are 99% of the time).

A sexy degree –
Online, to boot, gives prestige.
Time to quit my job.

Wow, I guess it is going to be really really late!
