Subject: I've been busy on amiright again
I just fixed a bug with the parody submission engine which caused the header info to get stripped from parodies on submission..
I also removed some silly (Coming Soon) text from the comments feature.. the comments function has been in place for months, so clearly that was no longer needed
and of course I also made it easier to remove plagerized parodies from the site.. I used to get one or two a month, I now get that many each week.. I can catch some before they get approved, but it's getting ever harder to preview all the parodies.

how did you do this? If its how Im thinking you did (like searching the web or something ) then many parodies by the likes of William Tong, Me, lebiew, ghettojohn, Jeff Buchoff etc, will appear in that search because we all have websites in which we post out parodies (granted, half of mine arent up there yet lol..but Im getting there!) anyway..have you accounted for this problem?

this is to remove them once they are submitted, not to prevent them from being entered.. in the past when someone got a parody approved, and I had to remove it, it was fairly time consuming. Since it used to be rare that someone would submit stuff they shouldn't, it didn't matter much. Lately however, I get a couple a day, and maybe one slips through.. so it was getting harder to remove them once they slipped through.. I've fixed that all now, and can just enter the URL, and let the software remove it.
