Spam Attack

By John

Some of you may have noticed that our comment sections having been slammed with spam the last couple of days. I've been banning, junking, and repeating every 10-12 hours in hopes that this particular spambot runs out of steam, but I think that may be wishful thinking.

Fair warning, we may have to implement some sort of registration/comment approval if we keep getting hit.

By the way, I fully support making spamming a capital crime, punishable by death.

John, If I might suggest the addition of just one word, in your last sentence. Your last line, in my view, should read, "By the way, I fully support making spamming a capital crime, punishable by a SLOW death." If you have ever used a "user-friendly" system which has been turned into a "user-belligerent" system. They would understand the sentiment. The other thing is this is someone's choice. This really blows my mind. Good Luck! Grumpy

You probably already know this:

'blogger.com' sites have had this problem for a long time.

Not all blogger.com sites us it yet, but they have an Word Verification protocol based on a graphical word that one must type in as security verification when posting a comment.

It works very well, and only a tiny inconvenience to posters.

This is one reason I made my blog moderated. I know this slows down discussions, but I would rather have moderated facts devoid of poor interjections than have every crackpot posting their propaganda and attacking others.

Make that a very slow, excruciatingly painful death.

Go ahead and implement registration for commenting - these spam bots will not let up - they're like the Terminiator.

IMHO, it's the one minimum thing you can do to get any relief.
