Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Wiki Comment Spam
The main reason I can see for allowing anonymous comments is because not everyone has an account and they'd still like to contribute feedback to things such as the HCL portions of the wiki. Yes, there is a process for requesting accounts, but in my own experience I never got a response back so gave up requesting one.

Seems we were being hit by a spambot for the last two days, thanks for the pointer. I've deleted the spam comments and somebody else already seems to have enabled CAPTCHAS for anonymous comments. If this isn't sufficient I guess we have to restrict commenting to logged in users. -- Guido Berhoerster ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list OpenIndiana-discuss@openindiana.org http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
