The ride on security never ends. Over the last few months, I have manually approved all comments. This is getting a little busy, particularly as I’m asleep while most of the USA is playing at night.
So on all sites except a torch down a well, I have installed more security, and opened up comments, using a form of Captcha. That site is basically markdown, and I don’t have comments installed.
I hope this helps.
Update.
Captcha is off. I have removed a plugin. Comments are open for a while. I will monitor, and Akismet is checking for spam.
By the way, the Captcha is silent. Most of you won’t see it. If you are new, you will.
And if I’ve banned you, nothing has changed.
