- Annoyed by spam
Due to the recent increase in the amount of comment spam I’ve made a couple of improvements. I’ve already mentioned that links related to comments now have nofollow applied, but that isn’t going to change anything any time soon. Mt-Blacklist is also doing a good job of at least moderating most spam. However, I thought I’d make it that little bit harder and so took some of the advice detailed in the MoveableType guide to fighting comment spam. Notably I’m now blocking comments from public proxies (anyone with a legitimate reason for using one can easily find my email address), using MT-DSBL. I’ve also made a couple of other changes to hopefully make it that much more difficult, we’ll see how it goes. As best I can tell non-spammy comments are still working, so I hope I didn’t break anything.

Name and email address are required. Email address is never shown. If you enter a URL your name will be linked to it (this and other links will have the rel attribute set to contain nofollow). Markup allowed: <a href="" title="" rel=""> <em> <strong> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <p> <br />. Anything else is stripped; please be valid. Single linebreaks automatically convert to <br />, double to <p>'s. Additionally anything that looks like a bare URL should get automagically linked. Many acronyms and abbreviations are also automagically handled.
