Moveable Type

From Encyclopedia Dramatica

Chafing blogging software from Six Apart, primarily used for independent sites. It is used by many people who ride on the Virginmobile.

Moveable Type's primary selling point is that its free to individuals and appeals to the cheap bastards on the Internet, usually teenagers. It is, however, fairly limited in this form and prone to comment spam, which can drive people to madness. LJ Drama was originally run using Movable Type, and older posts were filled with advertisements for penis pills and other useless shit. Savvier bloggers have moved onto other software at this point.

The GNAA has managed to crapflood many MT blogs, subverting all combinations of securty implemented by the Six Apart team, including captchas, ip-bans, and time limits on posting. And all this was done using only Python!
