I’ve been getting a fair bit of comment spam lately – invisible to you because I have to moderate it all first, but I’m going to put in a captcha plugin to try and stop it coming to me as well. This post may have some test comments.

I hate to sound like I’m proselyting, but have you investigated spam karma? It works really really well – There have only been a couple of worries about spam since installing. The main advantage it has is that it only presents captchas to those who’s comments are dodgey. This way most commenters can get away without having to fill out the annoying captcha.
Well, I’ll give that a go. So if you’ve just come to the site and don’t see the captchas, you know why…
Ok, it’s all installed and I did test to see what it did with a spam-like comment and it asked me to enter a captcha – the captcha isn’t as pretty as my old ones though. But I’m happy with that for now.
