No More Comments Until Comment Spam Ends

Posted on by in Miscellaneous | 2 Comments

I’ve finally given in to the comment-spammers. I’ve had to turn off comments on this weblog until Six Apart, the company that hosts this Weblog, does something to prevent un-authenticated commenters, or to enable me to moderate comments before they appear. And it turns out they are working on just that. So hopefully soon there will be a solution. In the meantime, if you want to comment, please send me an email and I’ll post it to the site.

    Or suggest that people use Trackback

    People can still use trackback to comment. You can use Kalsey’s Simpletracks if your app doesn’t support TrackBack directly.
