I obviously enjoy your blog.<br /><br />Oddly enough, I have never had big problems with comment spam on this blog (or any blogger sites) which is why I don't even use the CAPTCHA challenge here.<br /><br />It is http://sheppybrew.com where I am having the issue. I wrote that sight in my spare time in ASP.net (little by little). Basically, I am Moderating comments with any kind of link, so none are getting posted and the spammers are still trying. I think eventually they will give up. In the meantime, it has just been a pain going through the emails I get letting me know I have a comment to look at.<br /><br />So, really, I am using this as an excuse to figure out how to program a CAPTCHA challenge in ASP.net. It doesn't look too difficult, I just need to decide to take the time to do it.ESheppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12791870404804006118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14005070.post-56576107750175434812011-08-25T07:17:08.302-06:002011-08-25T07:17:08.302-06:00Thanks for the shout out ESheppy. Appreciate it. ...Thanks for the shout out ESheppy. Appreciate it. You were the one who pointed out the LinkWithin feature on your site. I liked it and added that to my blog as well. It's a nice graphical way to point out other articles.<br /><br />One tip about spam comments, I use Blogger as my platform as well. I turned on Comment Moderation to "Always". It requires that I approve every comment before it gets posted. I don't seem to get many spam comments anymore.<br /><br />Unfortunately, it's also a deterrent for others to post comments as well. I get far more comments on my Facebook page for the blog instead of the actual blog itself. I think it's a trend as more and more readers use RSS to read blog posts these days and don't actually visit the actual blog as much.<br /><br />Keep up the good work here. Always enjoy reading what's going on in other parts of Colorado. Cheers!Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04144288142060736290noreply@blogger.com
