Oh no…Captcha!


I do apologize to my true commenters but I have had to resort to Captcha on Philtopia because I am filtering out 20-30 russian spam comments a day for 4 or 5 true comments.

Captcha will appear on adding comments and registering to be a new user however Captcha is disabled if you become a registered user. I hate captcha’s but I’m getting littered with e-mails about bogus comments throughout the day so I had to add it to save my sanity!

Thanks again,  King Phil

  1. Has this experience made you hate CAPTCHAs any less? It’s easy to flamboyantly spew CAPTCHA hate as an end-user but it’s really quite a different kettle of fish for a service provider, isn’t it?

    Is Akismnt, Bad Behavior, or other spam fighters failing you? I’ve found I normally use a spam fighting plugin OR CAPTCHA’s. I don’t mind them all that much, I would rather enter a CAPTCHA then have to look through spam comments.

    Well personally I just do not trust spam filters because occasionally you always get good stuff lost in them and having to review them and train them is just a pain in the ass. I will admit that since I implemented Captcha my inbox has been much quieter and I am enjoying that very much. 🙂

    Captcha, you have won me over.
