 * I’ve been getting some empty comments with nothing filled out except for email,
   which is “e”. Does anyone else have such a problem?

 * I was getting quite a bit of those a while back. Spam Karma ate all of them and
   the wave passed in 48 hours. Some things to try:
 * 1. Block all referrer spammers with .htaccess:

 * 2. Block all connections from pinappleproxy. Add the following line to your .
   htaccess along with the referrer blocking rules:
    `SetEnvIfNoCase Via pinappleproxy
   spammer=yes`
 * 3. Give Bad Behavior a shot. After all, why not?
