So Alan has been calling out the spammers,
daring them to mess with him. Hmmm….don’t know that I would be so
bold. The good news here is that since I turned off Radio Hosting and
went back to the “gotta be a member and login before you can comment”
mode, the spam has been totally cut off. And, I’m happy to report,
people are still leaving comments. This is a good thing.
As is this, I think. Manila now seems to have the ability to approve or reject comments, though I’m not exactly sure:
The built-in callbacks do things like block a comment before it’s
posted or setup custom actions after a comment has been posted.
I
wish my brain got to the server side of things more easily. I’ll have
to dig around to see what this all means. At any rate, right now we
have all of our comment-able sites set to login first mode. Doesn’t
mean individuals still can’t come it and muck around with things, but
at least the bots are stopped.
