daynah’s gifts
January 28th, 2005
so much going on recently. i just received daynah’s birthday gifts for me. she totally spoiled me!
lots of cute items include cinnamoroll candy, pocky, hellokitty candy, hellokitty dolls, japanese treats and a big and extremely soft pillow. can you guess what is the animal on the pillow?
i totally have to take a video (1.15mb) to describe everything ^___^
Die spam bots!
January 28th, 2005
it’s not funny.. the spam spots are horrendous. now after i finally found a good way preventing them from infesting my wp, i found there’s another war i need to fight. they are eating up my bandwidth like MAD! this domain is using more than 10gb a month. thank you so much shi for giving me some more b/w. shi added 5 more gb for me and i about screamed when today i got ANOTHER email telling me i’m over 80% of my b/w limit. OMG when is this gonna stop?
it’s not all about popularity. because regretless gets 20 times more hits compared to pure essence and it does not even use more than twice the bandwidth. how pathetic! i know there are probably other reasons but one of the biggest difference is that pure essence gets hit by bots horribly. take a look
stats for Jan 2005 for pure-essence.net
stats for Jan 2005 for regretless.com
notice the b/w used by * are “generated by robots, worms, or replies with special HTTP status codes.” gosh i’m so mad. fortunately i’m not alone. i’m researching for different ways to block them. i’m reading How to block spambots, ban spybots, and tell unwanted robots to go to hell - it’s very comprehensive.
