Hot Topic Commenting

Probably read all about it by now from Kevin, Michele, or the master of wit and kittycams himself where I read it first.

However, I have something to say about that.

WordPress has some pretty spiffy comment moderation built in. I can flag commenters by number of links or by certain words. Say the right words and your comment will be moderated. If it doesn’t show up, oh wait a while and I’ll get to it if it’s legit. It also limits how often you can comment, kills a ton of spam.

That said, MT Blacklist works rather well too. I was impressed how once a spam comment was flagged, I could easily delete all comments made by said spammer. I like.

And I registered at TypeKey so I can still comment on blogs that use it.

So, not that commenting is a biggie for me, it is for some sites and some have, among their many hundreds of commenters, idiots that can’t be civil. Civil is nice and if you can’t be civil, be funny. Some people are neither. Have at ‘em. Go Lair!

Here’s a link to a WP plugin you may find useful for comment spam….you’ve got to like it concidering the developer’s name :)

I will so have to try that one. I have a few plugins to try and will be busy playing, thanks much for that one. :bow:
