Spammers are getting through and registering accounts #352

Closed waldoj closed 4 years ago

Spam isn't a problem, necessarily. Once spammers register, nothing happens. There's not, like, a page where their URL is linked. And spambots aren't smart enough to post comments with that account. So, hypothetically, we could just ignore spammers’ accounts. They do no harm.

But they annoy me. So.

Start taking some measures to make it harder for spammers to register for accounts.

Well, that has been extremely effective.

waldoj commented 4 years ago

Yup, done. (For now.)
