D’Arcy is having a good time with spam but I’m having an even better one.
After a couple of weeks of being off and being deluged despite the host of spam blockers I’ve got installed here I stumbled across WP-Gatekeeper and, well, as long as you’re prepared to answer a really rather simple question in the comments field, set by me, then you don’t get through.
Not painful at all, come and have a go if you fancy. Net result… no spam.
I have been writing my own blog software (just to see if I can) and have considered a similar approach to stoping spam. I’m glad to hear that it works.
