Almost from the moment I removed the feature, I have been getting slammed with comment spam. What's worse, it's been hitting older entries as well, making it even more difficult to hunt down and remove.
I know there are a number of things I should be doing, such as:
- Implementing Haloscan commenting.
- Moving the blog to an entirely new platform.
- Setting up my own domain.
Until then, I'll apologize for forcing you all to type in wacked-out key combinations when leaving comments. Blame the scum among us who insist on ruining what should otherwise be an enlightening, inspirational experience.
Thank you for your understanding.

I don't mind either, Carmi! You are always worth it!
Michele sent me, and there's a new post to read!
Hey, i make you do it on mine so we're even;-)
its really no biggie.
I also would love my own domain but i lack the talent.
I hate comment spam. In fact, I hate spam of all stripes. So I don't mind typing in a few letters.
Here today from Michele's.
There's no need to apologize. Word verification is a very minor annoyance when compared to the onslaught of spam that shows up without it.
As more and more blogs *have* to implement wod verification, even those who hate it will just get used to it and not think twice. It's not that big a deal.
But yeah...haloscan is awesome. I don't think I've ever gotten spam in my comments...
I don't mind having type out a few extra random nonsense letters to get the chance to chat back at ya, don't worry about it, I understand
oh and michele sent me!
