The arena design is coming together nicely. Lighting is working. The planet has some nice geometry while using a billboarding technique to produce the atmospheric glow. Asteroid materials now use LOD levels.

Lately, I’ve been experimenting with procedural asteroid fields along with lights and shadows.
Bots and Spam
I killed about 3000 spam comments on my stories with a single SQL statement. Beware any spammer from considering spamming me again.
delete FROM `gl_comments` WHERE 1
delete FROM `gl_storysubmission` WHERE 1
UPDATE `gl_stories` SET comments = 0 WHERE 1
DELETE FROM `gl_users` WHERE uid > 50
Also disabling comments worked wonders.
