It attracted too many spammers, who left three, five, or seven, spam comments in very quick succession in the hope of gaining backlinks.

Is this plugin something for me? Like others have said, if someone only visits once and leaves a great comment why should they not receive the benefit of a link? I am a newbie and am trying to figure this out but am a bit confused about it. Thanks, Hi David,

People should be allowed to formulate their own opinions, so I also don't agree with a ban. I’ve not seen Fitna, but a quick search tells me it’s anti-Koran.

Actually before this movie show up, the control was quite loose, but this movie content has angered our president that he demand a ban on any website showing this movie. I will discuss this on my blog once i get the chance (maybe tonight/appx. 7 hour from now); i have scan my gmail inbox and find there are people suffer financial loss due to the ban since they sell things through Multiply. But i think i require further research on the topics. I think this ban was precedented by several country in Asia like China and Vietnam (if i'm not mistaken). Governments become aware that they able to put censor on our connection. Well in my personal opinion the ban wasn't quite right, it's like there is something wrong with your hand and the solution is cutting the whole arm; people does have advantage on Youtube, there is a teacher having her teaching material from Youtube. <em>Nugroho Adi Pratama's last blog post..<a href='http://id-economy.blogspot.com/2008/04/maybank-plans-expansion-on-indonesia.html' rel="nofollow">Maybank plans expansion on Indonesia</a></em> The ban was happen because of Fitna movie, have you watch this movie?

Taylor, I don't spend any longer than a couple of minutes per day checking the spam filter. If it got to 10 or 15 minutes I'd have to change something, because that's too long. Thanks everyone for commenting. A. Taylor,
