The Spam Experience

OK, it looks like we've finally encountered dreaded comment spam here at The Ross Experience. You may notice vague comments recently from random "people". We'd recommend not clicking on the links as they're just other websites trying to generate traffic.

Today, we re-established word verification when posting comments, sort of like when you purchase event tickets online. We realize it's annoying trying to interpret what looks like a 4-year old writing non-words like RUEGFLRG or AFGUYD left-handed, but it's the lesser evil compared to spam.

If this doesn't solve the problem, we will be forced to take the Draconian step of only allowing comments from people with Google IDs. But, hey, it's 2009, and if you're not using some sort of Google app yet, you're probably not commenting on blogs anyway.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Happy commenting!
