Not Just another WordPress weblog

The ultimate blog death… and rebirth

Posted on June 04, 2006 by Angela

After logging into my wordpress, I found 100,000 spam comments. Yes, 100,000. I guess I should have been a bit more vigilant but I wasn’t. In a fit of rage, I deleted everything. All posts, all comments… everything. With an angry click of the mouse, I deleted five years worth of stuff and I couldn’t care less. Most of it was bullshit anyway. I’ll fix it up, but the past is gone.

    Dang sorry to hear you lost all your posts!

    Sucks to lose it all though, huh? I lost almost 900 entries… for other reasons though.

    Welcome to my world sister. But I decided today to get mine going again….some day.

    Damn. Gutsy.
    I haven’t decided what I’m going to do with my “past.” lol
    My website is stuck in limbo…perhaps someday I’ll press that delete key.

    Well, technically, I have the sql file with the entire blog so it isn’t lost. The comments are all gone though.

    You mean all my witty comments are gone? For shame :)
