Goodbye Akismet & Blank white wordpress screen, Hello Spammers

Thankfully, I don’t get that many spammers, because I had to deactivate the Akismet plugin. After creating 5 billion different combinations of plug-ins and themes, I figured out the only time commenting didn’t work is when Akismet was enabled. If you are also having the same problem, where commenting takes you to a blank white screen (commonly dubbed the WordPress white screen of death), I recommend trying it without Akismet. It’s a great plugin, but if it breaks commenting, then what’s the point?

Let the spamming commence.
