I now have a third layer of spam protection up and running. This newest layer is supposed to determine whether a “spambot” is attempting to imitate a real live human being. I’ve run a few test comments to make sure that “normal” comments are getting through, and I haven’t encountered any problems, yet.
The second layer of spam protection has a growing list of buzzwords that will prompt a Captcha test — one of those annoying “Type these letters” tests that forces you to transcribe words from a graphic — to make sure you’re really you. I apologize if you get hit with one of those, but I am trying to hit as many of the spambots’ keywords as I can while still trying to make it easy for you to get through without any problem.
Yesterday’s Saturday Six didn’t seem to be affected, but if you post a comment and it won’t let you through, please click the Contact tab at the top of the header and send me a quick private message to let me know.
