… and we’ll see if this works. Still need to login, for now.
For those that are interested, the way the spammers work is that…well…
… there are 10s of millions of blogs out there that use WordPress software, like this one, and each of them has the same functions (webpages) with the same names.
If someone finds a way around having to login in order to post, by calling a specific function that the writers of WordPress did not expect outsiders to call, then they have a way into each and every one of the 10s of millions of blogs.
I.E. a way to post their message about erectile disfunction to millions of blogs and even more people, some numbers of which must actually want to hear about this problem that seems rampant amoung American males.
A custom site, like Romy’s The GoodSoundClub, and some of the more unique forums, do not have to worry about spammers – their software has functions with uncommon names and even if the spammers get in they will not be reaching those 10s of millions of eyeballs – it just isn’t worth their time.
