Wordpress Comment Spam

Remember that bit about comment spam? And with the new rel stuff, I wasn't getting any?

Well, that went away last night. I'd gotten a few before that, but last night I got 90 trackback spam. Most of them were dumped straight to my moderation queue, but about 15 of them got onto the site.

I got an email asking me why I had a feed with only obscenties in it for a recent comments feed. I explained the idea of spam to him. He hasn't responded.
