Well today, about 8 hours ago, I got my first comment spam on this new blog telling people to go and “Order Phentermine”. Well no more I say! I have altered the options a bit for WordPress, any comment containing more than 5 links will be held for moderation, as opposed to the 10 links it was previously. Also, anyone commenting who does not already have a pre-approved comment will have it held for moderation. I would have to assume that it would use email addresses for this, so hopefully this will keep all spammers out.
If this keeps the spam down (and here’s hopin’ it does) then I may raise the link limit back up to 10, because 5 might be a little bit cramped.
Mine’s on 2. 🙂
oh david, i wanted to order Phentermine!
…
btw, it’s a great way to close the door to spammers!
Jona, that’s just ’cause you’re mean. 😛
LCF, you’ll just have to lose some weight another way. 😉
But I need to pointlessly link to random websites. Whatever will I do now?!!
Bah, I’m changing my Name here to my real name instead of my pseudo name.

I don’t get it… I’ve never had a problem with comment spam. Never EVER.
Lol, looks like a spoke too soon. I just got the Phentermine one aswell, but it was sent to Moderation right away.
Whatever will you do indeed Neal, you’ll get your comments moderated is what. 😀

Holy crap, I’m glad I took some preventative measures, I just got 3 new spam comments in the past 7 hours. Two telling people to buy viagra and another for sex toys.
These people just have no decency.
Lol. Hmmm…what keywords that YOU would use would ever attrac them, David? :p
