Really uncool >_>
While I was gone, either there was a bot that actually figured out how to read my script and answer it properly (VERY UNLIKELY) or some asshole is trying to be funny (MUCH MORE LIKELY). All of the messages that look like the first one in this post, aside from that comment itself, have been put on queue. The fact that this first version of the comment appeared on the post titled "Bots going a little crazy" gives me great suspicion that it's a person and not a bot.
If you're the asshole who made the comments, go ahead and do it more, it'll prove you're a human. Oh, and I have no problem blocking dynamic IP addresses if that's what you have. It's called IP range blocking, and it's as simple as 1, 2, 3. I'll be reading through my server logs momentarily to track all activity by the person who decided to annoy me.
EDIT: OKAY! As I thought, whatever it is, is using different IP addresses.
Here's the list of its IP addresses so far.
76.24.51.57
88.191.66.83
63.253.158.220
205.213.195.70
80.96.219.12
115.119.35.195
62.2.216.204
94.183.195.86
It's always using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 with Windows XP. I know this due to its user agent "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)"
If it is indeed a bot, it could be faking its user agent. My main problem with this possible bot is the fact that I DON'T ALLOW LINKING! That should make the possible bot leave because it's not going to be able to link or find any exploits here. I work in the php security field and have extensive experience with this bullcrap, so leave me alone. I need a moderator...or...bot sensor...he he he...bye bot an hour. I already figured out a way. Actually, right when I wrote that I figured out an even easier way and wrote this message I just wrote. Look below!
INTERNET EXPLORER 6 IS NO LONGER ALLOWED TO POST COMMENTS!
UPDATE 2/25/10 1:27PM: The bot/person comments stopped right after I implemented the Internet Explorer 6 block. Ha...
