Sorry Anons

Sorry anons, but the level of spam has just gotten to unprecedented levels. I've tried being patient, I've tried CAPCHA, and now it's gotten to the level of disabling anonymous comments. I swear to Pete, if I have to see one more spamvertizement for Ugg boots, Chanel bags, duty-free cigarretts, or cheap Nike jerseys, I'm gonna lose it.

God, it's the fricking worst. I never used to have much of a problem with spam--the occasional odd message in Russian, say, but now I'm getting 'confessions' of 'love' from spambots on my stories all the time, i.e., dating site ads. Even if I were looking to date, I can't think of a way LESS likely to get my business than to insult my intelligence like this.

I hadn't thought about disabling anon comments, but maybe it's going to have to come to that. URGH.
