Further to the comment spam post a few days ago, the level of junk’s got increasingly silly (cleared lots of spam last night, another 50-odd waiting for me this morning). So I’ve added Peter’s Custom Anti-Spam system, which seems to be one of the more elegant anti-spam efforts. It shouldn’t make a difference if you’re registered – you can ignore the word recognition thing – but non-registered users need to type the appropriate word to leave a comment. Sorry, it’s a pain, but the spam’s taking up too much of my time.

How do you register then?
There’s a “register” link on the front page – last box on the right hand side. No idea if it works or not :)

That does seem to work, although it gives you absolutely no indication that anything is different until you post. You don’t need to type your name or anything.
Yeah, I can make that compulsory but I don’t see the need for it.
Where did you get the word list from as it is a bit surreal.
I may have changed the default words.
Well, it seems to have worked – 50-odd spam yesterday, zero spam today. Thanks for your patience with this.
