Three of my blogs now have been hit with waves of comment spam from fucking Chinese language spammers. They are either paying workers to deal with captcha verification or they have developed a bot to deal with it.
Either way, I have enabled comment moderation on my blogs. I hate doing that, for it really kills off the dynamics of people commenting, but I also don't want to have to spend the time deleting tens of spam comments.
I'd rant about how I really hate those low-life fuckers, but I'd be preaching to the choir on this one.
A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.
Slava Ukraini!

In short, don't be a jackass. THIS MEANS YOU!
If you never see your comments posted, see Rule #7.
All comments must be on point and address either the points raised in the blog post or points raised by commenters in response.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
I'll trade your Chinese spammers for my Russian mail-order bride spammers.
ReplyDeleteI apparently have a problem with something called "ED" ...
ReplyDeleteI wrote an article on how to selectively moderate comments. You can make it so that comments older than X days will go into moderation. Good for two reasons - first, it discourages spam. Second, you don't miss comments people want to leave on an article you wrote five years ago.
Cujo, I was doing that (14 day window), but the motherfuckering spammers came in under that window.
ReplyDeleteI'll revert once the tide of spam goes out.
No prob.

I think I'll try for a 3 day window and see if that works.
