Spam Spam Spam
I love Blogger's new "mark it as spam" option on commentary moderation, and I've been using it generously. However, I still seem to be getting the same spam on the same old blog posts. Is anyone else having more or less success with this?
I have to say that while I am still getting the occasional asian porn spam that i've been getting for a while, this new set up is correctly identifying it as spam and not publishing it.
I'm actually kind of loving this new set up. It allows my regulars to comment without having to moderate and newcomers get put in the 'awaiting moderation' tab.
Since the only spam i've been getting is as described, it's probably pretty easy for Blogger to detect. It might be harder for it to tell those that are in English.
No anonymous comments will be accepted. If you wish to say something dissenting or unpleasant, then do so. But, you must identify yourself either with your own name or a fake name. "Anonymous" comments will be deleted without exception.
I stand by my comments. I expect you to do likewise.
