As this site has gained popularity, the time required to keep the site running has also grown. For instance, even though Akismet blocks virtually all of the spam comments, I still have to manually filter through hundreds of spam comments per day to see if any valid comments were blocked.
And so, the Geek's Spam Filter was born.
This spam filter is designed to completely block and delete most, but not all spam. It runs before Akismet does, so it saves processing time on your site, as well as a lot of your time.
