« Coming up: My tutorial on how to leave a Typekey authenticated comment on this blog | Main | Thin Puppy Torture Test II, Day 11 »

I've gotten 360 or so spam comments in the past 24 hours

Not so great, but not totally unmanageable. Still, that's a lot of spam, I might consider Typekey-only comments in the very near future ... until we implement Movable Type registration.

Steve,

I've had the same problem. What I've done is kill out old, no-longer-interesting-or-timely entries that seem to be spam-comment magnets; I still get more than plenty of spam comments but fewer than in the past.

Just a thought.

I can't get rid of anything. I'm thinking of moving to Typekey-only comments, and there's talk of all blogs using the new Movable Type account registration like the USC blog, so I might wait for that.

They've just got to keep the server from getting hammered somehow.
