Report on spam comments and Akismet
So far, Akismet has been 100% effective at detecting and sequestering spam comments. It has caught all spam, and there are zero false positives. This is good news! I can leave the comment forms open for posting, even by non-registered users. There are these restrictions in place, however: the first comment by a user will be held for approval, after which that user’s posting will appear immediately; the comment form closes after 45 days or 10 days since the last posting, whichever is later; and, postings are limited to no more than two urls each. Please read the comment policy page for more information.
