They’ve gotten past the wicket. Got to devise a new wicket.
Meanwhile, use the Contact Us and e-mail me personally if you’re a real person trying to register. I have a set of tests I apply at a glance, and while a Real Person may have one of several characteristics, if I spot several of them at once on one person, that member gets booted. Again, if you’re not a bot and I tossed you unjustly, just email me and we’ll get you through.
I am afraid I am still having the login problem from work. Your spam filters have taken an irrational dislike to my work IP, and I don’t know if you are getting my White List requests. I try to test post every week or so, but I haven’t been able to get in for about 2 months now.
Who are these ‘people’? I have never been able to figure out their purpose, other than making others miserable. Many blogging friends have gone to individually approving each comment, they’ve been spammed so much. 🙁
I haven’t gotten anything, Chondrite. Rats! Send me that ip via e-mail and I will see if I can bully the system into accepting it.
Smartcat, we do pretty well: I get about 18-30 a day that I just blanket-delete from membership. The purveyors of spam probably pay poor sods to push buttons and become members, but on my setup, since I have to approve, doesn’t seem to get deeper than that.
