Stop comment spam with Akismet and captcha in Drupal
One of the fun things with blogs is the possibility for readers to post comments. Unfortunately spammers post spam comments just like they send spam e-mail. So to keep the possibility for real visitors to post comments we need some type of defence against spammers.
The ratio of spam in comments is about the same as for e-mail. Something like 7 or 8 out of 10 is spam.
In an effort to stop comment spam xdeb.org has used the Captcha module with a simple math captcha.
