Technical Update: To Spam or not to Spam
Spam: The bane of modern communications:
Telephone solicitors interrupt our Sunday Dinners, junk mail fills our mailboxes and land fills. Spam mail fills our inboxes. It has inundated online role-playing games, and as of today has hit the blogging community( or at least this blog).
Effective today the comment section has had word verification enabled. What does this mean? Well it means to post a comment you are going to have to enter a randomly selected word you see on the screen. This word is rendered in such a way as to prevent auto-botting systems from spamming the comment section. It is displayed in a skewed image so that text-recognition systems cannot read it, but the human brain can.
Sorry for the inconvenience folks, but it is better this than random links to those NOT SAFE FOR WORK sites.
