Oy.

Anyone else been getting the anonymous comment spam lately? It's not a lot, but it's annoying. I've set anonymous comments to have a Captcha, and hopefully that'll deter them; I don't really want to disable anonymous commenting, but I don't really care to hear about Indian London escort girls or the like.

Comments

no, but I have everything locked down. no anonymous comments, and everything friends locked except for the top "friends only" post.

There are definite advantages to that. Things like spam-bots and trolls can be pretty damn annoying.

I don't allow anon comments personally (not giving anyone the opportunity to be an anonymous douchebag) but I would think that Captcha should take care of that for you.

The spam seems to be getting ridiculous anymore. Doesn't seem like a day goes by without one community on my friends page with some sort of spam post. Sometimes explicit ones. D:

I've never had a problem before with douchebaggery so it was never an issue. These ones are trying to be smart and look like genuine comments, but most live people wouldn't leave "Interesting article I like the themes" on a silly little post about my cat :P. Idiot bot. Hopefully the Captcha will work.

I haven't personally gotten any, but I've seen the anony comments on quite a few of my friends' posts as well on communities. Hopefully Captcha takes care of it!

Hopefully. I'm not sure why my blog is being hit all of a sudden. Probably just came up on the blog roulette, but still, it's annoying.
