Bad Behaviour Gets Naughty…
by Jim on Dec.08, 2007, under Rants
When this site was first set up I allowed for unregistered users to comment on the site, and well you can guess what happened next… if you haven’t got it by now, then I can spoil it for you: SPAM! I then decided to counter this with only allowing registered posts and the spam died down alongside actual comments. User activity is a problem that all sites have to deal with, as the administrator is faced with a problem: enable unregistered comments or posts and face a spam problem that makes global warming look like a minor inconvenience? Or just get no activity at all, because no one wants to register for anything.
