Comment Spam

Note: This article was published while I was in my early 20s. I was much younger and dumber. Please don't hold it against me. One of the perils of having a 20+ year old website!

Lately I have been getting an unorthodox amount of comment spam, mostly in the form of Trackbacks. In lieu of this I have added a field to the comment form where the user should type ‘notspam’ in order for their comment to be valid. I am not sure if this will work for trackback spam, but I’m really hoping, because I am tired of my inbox being full of it!
