Last night we finally "hit the big time"...we're clearly showing up on SOME search engine SOMEWHERE, because in the course of about 15 minutes last night we had over 500k requests...all from spammers. I spent the next 4-5 hours locking them out, but when I went to bed this morning at about 4:30am I finally resorted to simply locking all articles so that there cannot be comments. I'll spend some time later today crafting a better solution.
