Bare with me
I found a little security feature I’m going to add. When you post a comment, there will be a box that will have a randomly generated security code. You will have to copy the code (around 6 characters) into another box. Without that code entered, the site will not let you post a comment. It shouldn’t be that big of a deal at all.
I will try to get it installed as soon as possible, so the comments will be back up and running. It looks like I’m going to need Peters help though, so it’s contingent on me getting a hold of him. Hopefully it will be up soon.
No commentsOkay….
I had to shut down the comments on the site for now. If you have a registered username, which pretty much no one does, you can still comment. I’m working on it though.
God damn spam assholes.
No commentsFricken Spam Bot
So sometime last night, my site started getting hit with a spam bot. Between last night and this morning, I had 185 comments I had to delete. I get emails every time someone posts a comment, so I had 185 emails to delete also. Not a great start to an already fucked up day due to the snowy ride in. Oh yeah, and the cops were here at work this morning because our alarm was going off when Nate came in, and when he tried to turn it off he apparently only turned off the outside alarm, and the silent one was still going. So I’m sitting in my office first thing this morning, and the cops come in.
What the fuck? I’m going to go back to bed. What a crap day already.
Because of this spambot, I will be researching security ways for comments to be posted. I’m going to try and make it as easy as possible. I don’t necessarily like the one Peter has, because I don’t like having you guys have to manage a separate username and password. And I just don’t like the interface. Hopefully I will be able to find some random code generator that will make you type in a code to post, that won’t be too bad.
