## Description

Damn Spam WordPress Plugin

Damn Spam is a lightweight plugin to help clean up that darned spam. This plugin
is highly opinionated and, once activated, will automatically send any comments 
that contain links in the comment body directly to the spam inbox. Granular settings
for deeper control will be added over time.

If you’re tired of having to sift through hundreds of comments to find real ones
without any links and manually send spammy ones to the spam inbox – then this is
the plugin is for you.
