Which is commendable. Real hacking takes a bit more effort. Spambots...well, they aren't even lulzworthy, to tell you the truth. I've got a couple of friends who can take down whole networks in a few keystrokes, one of them a reformed criminal who doesn't do it anymore and the other a kid who's at least got a sense of dignity. I don't think either would be terribly impressed with a simple bot.

From the time I discovere the spamming & sent a text to Alex (that was 2:52 my local time) and right now (I just checked the blogs and they are de-spammed - 4:38 my local time) was a total of 1 hour 46 minutes. That is a very impressive response time - it should end any debate about WP's capability to deal with this problem.
