Something weird happened in November, I got hit by a truckload of Spam-comments and I spent a lot of time checking them out. A lot of the spam were from Romania, a wave of ‘nice’ comments were dropped with an intense pase. I also receive a lot of adult comments with a bunch of links in tham.

I am so glad i have Akismet who caught this early and flagged a lot of European spammers. Some were incorrectly flagged as spam but that is easy to fix but it takes a lot of time to go through all the comments.

I guess both LinkLove and being on follow-lists has its good and bad sides.

Here is my status now :

Noe merkelig skjedde i november, plutselig økte antall spam-kommentarer noe grasalt. Spesielt fra Romania. Mulig jeg havnet på en follow-liste der nede, har sett bloggen min på en del slike lister.

Jeg er så glad for at jeg har Akismet, de flagget spammerne ganske tidlig og det har jeg dratt nytte av. Bare se på tallene under. En god del av kommentarene var ‘fin post’ kommentarer fra .ro men det har også vært en del voksen-kommentarer med linker til diverse ugunstige steder. De havner heldigvis fort i spam-kurven. I november brukte jeg en god del tid på å gå gjennom denne kurven. Noen få hadde feilaktig blitt flagget men det ordnes jo fort.

Å ha både LinkLove og være på follow-lister har sine gode og dårlige sider..

Her er min status nå :

    I’m getting a boat load of “I love the post on blah blah blah and would like to translate it into German. I will give you a link back” on my book review blog. Askimet has tagged every one of them as spam and I felt like it was correct after seeing 16 of them in a row for various posts and all with the same couple of addresses.

    I also use bad behavior plugin on all of my blogs.

    Why dont you use anti spam filter. I am using peter-anti spam plugin which will generate a random characters as image and then the commentator of the blog will also have to fill it to submit the comment.

    After i installed it. I am not getting spams.

    Akismet rocks. But every now and then I get a whole truckload of comments that make it past, but it is better than nothing. When I look at the history of spam that was blocked, I am very thankful.
