Looking for help setting a new wordpress up...(spam related) (5 posts)

    I have 1.5-beta-1 2005-01-04 running already at iconoclastic.polarism.com

    I want to take the stuff i've already written, delete the current installation, and start fresh, only here are the stipulations:

    Whatever I have to install or modify, I want zero chance of spam, I do not care what I have to do (as long as it's free), I do not want spam. I'm not a programmer so this solution has to be very small amounts of editing or just copy/paste.

    I just want to be able to write and have comments without worrying about it, I don't care what version I use, I don't care about anything other than it looking like it looks now.

    Thanks, :)

    If you leave comments open, there will be a chance of spam.

    I believe the material there is largely similar to

    But btvillarin is right. Commenting is like Sex. Only abstinence is 100% effective at eliminating the risk of disease.

    Well I fixed it, I removed all traces of the comment system functionality from the blog code. Kind of counter-productive but i'll sacrifice usability for less annoyance.

    Are you now also running the official "Strayhorn" release?
