Stop Comment Spam!

I've been getting a lot of Comment Spam lately, so I looked up how to stop it. Here's a great article from Google - Hard Facts About Comment Spam.  

I decided to disallow Anonymous Comments as the first step. If that doesn't help, then I'll try some of the other suggestions (turning on Word Verification, though, will be my last resort!).

  1. I just did the same thing - turned off the annony option, and I've not gotten any spam since. I do wonder if I've lost commenters, but I decided it's OK to ask people to sign in w/ some affiliation. I hope that fixes it for good for both of us!
