The comment form of my blog is protected by what I refer to as "naive CAPTCHA", izmir escort where the CAPTCHA term is the same every single time. This has to be the most ineffective CAPTCHA of all time, and yet it stops 99.9% of comment spam. I can count on two hands the number of manually entered comment spams I've gotten since I implemented it. Granted, Yahoo is more popular than my blog by many orders of magnitude. But it's still strong evidence that moving the difficulty bar up even one tiny notch can be quite effective in reducing spam. I went from cleaning up comment spam every day to cleaning one per month. Big difference.

It really is very hard trying to stay away from creating libraries, thinking about future uses and what extra things I izmir escort can put in that might used in the future. Simply creating code that works and only does what I need it to really helps to move things ahead.
