Problems with comments

Recently the comments section for the EGREGORES blog has been deluged by thousands of spam messages that were not caught by blogspot's filters (which up until now have done a pretty good job).

If you have recently attempted to post a comment, I apologize if it did not get through. I have now enabled the word verification feature, which I hope will take care of the issue.

  1. I have seen several folks on blogger complaining about this same sort of thing this week.

    I don't get very much spam.

    Maybe my blog simply isn't widely read enough to be worth the spammers' time.

    Someday, I'll know I've made it when I start getting spam!

    Until then, I will try and prove I am a human with your captchas!

Comment moderation on for all posts older than 4 days. However, I never censor or block views of people that I disagree with, unlike some intellectually lazy cowards.
