Been keeping my lj open to anonymous posters so that Chuck, anhh, Scott, and several people I know only under the name "Anonymous" can post comments. I hope to keep it that way, while contending with the spambots as best I can. This generally isn't too hard: mostly the spambots find some old thread and hit it with one or two or bomb it with a lot, and when I get the chance at the end of the day I delete the spam or, if the spam's really numerous, simply lock the thread temporarily. Doesn't really matter, since very few people ever make their way to my old threads. [EDITORIAL COMMENT: Um, you should. Frolic around with the tags over on the lower right. UPDATE: Or lower left if you're on Dreamwidth.] Sometimes I actually enjoy rediscovering an old conversation I'd have forgotten if the spambots hadn't drawn me back.

Problem now is that the spambots are consistently finding my most recent threads, which I'd like to keep open no matter what. Poor Lakeside is getting strafed by 50 or so spammies a day. I don't want to lock my new threads, but I'm not always able to get online, or when I am online, don't always have time to check my inbox. So if you drop by, you might see a lot of dreck down various threads. But don't be afraid to comment, if you get the urge. I'll clear out the spam comments soon enough, and'll be careful not to delete yours.

Case in point in this thread so far. ^^

I made the mistake - once - of writing about "The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi" (a well-known anime) and putting the series title in the post title. The antidepressant spambots found me and I still get antidepressant spam, to this day.

They seem to have been on the attack lately unless you've been very quick to delete in the past.

Iinfinitely low-tiered nugus Flashe have emerged from wherever they've been hiding and uploaded a new MV.

[Error: unknown template video]

I only know about it because someone posted it on the reddit K-Pop forum.

P.S. On the comments to another upload of the MV, someone speculates that three members might have been replaced.

According to Color Coded Lyrics (which I should have checked before, duh), the only original members left are SongHee (in Drop It she's the one who repeats the chorus as a solo) and Narae (the rapper).
