As an exper­i­ment, I have restored the facil­ity to com­ment on my posts. I’ve done this because I am test­ing out a new plug in that is sup­posed to deal with spam comments.

That’s the rea­son com­ments were dis­abled, because of the over­whelm­ing amount of spam com­ments I was receiv­ing on a daily basis. At its peak, I was attract­ing over 1000 spam com­ments a day, for any­thing from porn and via­gra to online casi­nos and life-extending med­ica­tions. It was more than I could keep up with as I had to mod­er­ate each one.

Mod­er­a­tion will con­tinue and I will need to approve any com­ments before they are pub­lished. I will try to approve gen­uine com­ments, good or bad, as quickly as I can. If this spam plug in actu­ally works, I will con­sider turn­ing mod­er­a­tion off.

So that’s it kids, feel free to chip in with your 2 cents and let’s all hope I don’t get hit with more wacky spam com­ment crap. Enjoy!
