Lately I have been getting an unorthodox amount of comment spam, mostly in the form of Trackbacks. In lieu of this I have added a field to the comment form where the user should type ‘notspam’ in order for their comment to be valid. I am not sure if this will work for trackback spam, but I’m really hoping, because I am tired of my inbox being full of it!
