Comment spam on my blogs
Learn how to tackle comment spam effectively by upgrading your site with better controls to distinguish between genuine comments and automated spam.
Well, it looks like I'm going to have to upgrade the site sooner than I thought. I just deleted 100+ comment spam posts from some jackass posting a link to his article. Luckily they weren't approved yet so no one else saw them, but it's a pain the ass for me to have to delete them all.
The next software upgrade with have some better controls to make sure it's actually someone entering a comment, and not an automated script.
