You are very patient with mollom. Are you so unsatisfied with akismet that you urgently need another solution?

Not sure “patient” is the word… I’m frustrated with every antispam package I’ve tried – they all fail in their own ways. Akismet lets a fair bit of spam through, requiring a LOT of moderation. SK2 needed a bunch of attention to work properly. Mollom (so far) seems to work best of the three – although it appears to throw up captcha more often than I’d like…

The dog is sniffing around to see if the captcha behaves… we know how much D\’Arcy loves captchas

thanks, alan. Mollom triggered a captcha, but I’ve filed that as a potential bug or issue with mollom – you’re one of my most prolific commenters here, and it’s not right that you’d be subjected to a captcha.

thanks for kicking the blog-comment-antispam tires for me.

When I sometimes comment on acuia (they’re using mollom, two) I feel like a spambot :-)
It’s so difficult to recognize their fancy captchars that I usually need about three tries to get through – it’s not so usable…

Sorry, mis-spelled, it’s “acquia” not “acuia”, Dries’s Drupal Company.
