Disabling Comments
By Timothy R. Butler | Posted at 10:19:0
For the first time in asisaid's four and a half year run I have been forced to disable comments on a post. It seems that blogspammers, which previously have either been unsuccessful with my spam filter or ignored me altogether, really liked this one post — I had to delete three spams in three days. Hence, I closed the comments on that post.
I hope it is an isolated incident.
Three spam! At least it wasn't three hundred spam. It is pretty normal for that many to be blocked from my blog in three days.
Yeah, I guess it doesn't seem too bad compared to what it could be…
I need to log how many I block, though, perhaps I'm getting hit with more than I think. On the other hand, even before adding the blocking support for Ed, I never really had much trouble.
