To give you an idea of the scale of this onslaught, Akismet captured 553 thousand individual pieces of comment spam in two days— more than they used to get in an entire month.

As the blog gets more popular, more spam is coming. Akismet has yet to let a piece of spam through. Thanks for making it so easy. Thanks, Akismet for a great spam blocker.

One install of Bad Behaviour (blocks the little [censored]s before they can get on my site and drain my bandwidth) later and my bandwidth usage is a third of what it was. Damn spammers! I hate to think what WP.com's bandwidth usage has gone up by, if a small barely-registers-on-google site like mine has attracted so many spammers.

Thanks for this great service! - Now i need to script it so i only need to press one button to delete them all myself :) At least they're not being published on the site. However, it did miss one spam comment today :o and one a couple of days ago on my WP blog (which were submitted to the akismet server!)
