MT-Blacklist at work

Stefan Tilkov,

Quietly and efficiently, MT-Blacklist continues to do its work. Simply great stuff.

I see you’ve got some old blacklist entries in there. You may update your blacklist from the master blacklist.

If you get a lot of these types of followup comments, you may want to post an blurb near the comment form telling people what happens to submitted HTML.

yes, I know there is a preview button, but you know, we are all inherently lazy for better or worse.

Seriously, though: You are right, thanks for the suggestion and the blacklist hint.
