If you run a WordPress blog, you may have noticed a significant uptick in Russian spam comments recently.
If this is an issue and you’re running Akismet (recommended), you can tell Akismet to blacklist comments containing “.ru” in the comment body, name, URL, or e-mail. Go to Options > Discussions. Here’s a screenshot.

I found this article when I was searching if akismet can filter russian spam comments or it doesnt. Cause I have a lot of spam comments in my own blog.
That phrase in russian sounds funny. I made a correct replacement for it.
“А теперь, русские спаммеры, пожалуйста уйдите с моего сайта. Вы раздражаете блогосферу таким поведением.”
Thanks for pointing out. Damn Russian spammers :).
