I read the following at the forums:
"well, spammers can't spam posts that don't exist in mt. in wp, they
have a field day hitting new wp users."[1]
I think charle97 is referring to the fact that spammers can leave
comments for incremental post ids.
It would be good check if a post with the specified id exists before
inserting the comment into the db. I am thinking this should be done
through a modification of the core. Just a note.
