The Coder Blogs

[July 2nd 2008] 

I think the spammers recently got their tax checks and went nuts buying domains. In the last 48 hours I can’t even tell you how many spam bots I’ve wiped out that are trying to register here, plus I’ve deleted 50+ spam comments from one of the user blogs, so for the next 24-48 hours I’m closing the flood gates to see if that helps control the rush of spam registrations. Now that I have a working captcha on the registration page it seems that more bots have been signing up, it doesn’t make much sense.

I’ll make another announcement post when the registrations are open to the public again.

[edit - August 17th 2008]

Registrations are currently disabled due to having more than 100 spam bots trying to register this weekend.
