After I posted the complaint yesterday about how inefficient it was to delete skankbot comments from this blog, I found a slightly more efficient way to do it, by using the edit function and going through the entire blog, entry by entry (since most of the comments were batched up in particular entries they could be checked and deleted in clumps). I didn't bother getting rid of the IPs.
I suppose it has to be done every so often. Or, I could prescreen comments. Nah, too much work. It took 30-45 minutes to do more than a year's worth of entries, and I got a little trip down memory lane into the bargain.
Anyways. On with the day.
