Today I was going to re-enable comments on the site. It’s not like this is a heavy traffic site or anything, but I did always enjoy getting feedback from the people who visit the site.
But that was before I looked at my user list. My user list is packed with obvious bot names. And it seems like some of the users have visited a couple of times recently. So I know that if I enable comments again I will just be flooded with comment spam.
Seems like a new version of Drupal is coming out soon, so maybe I will upgrade to that and try some of the anti spam modules out there. Probably just one of those anti-bot images when user register will work out.
Another option would be to start a forum up again, but sometimes I find it depressing when I only get 1 post a week and it’s mine. So I will see what happens.
