Too bad Engtech no longer updates Akistmet Auntie Spam for newer versions of WordPress. It really helps speed up the process of filtering through spam comments coz once in a while some ham gets mixed up together with the spam.

I hope Engtech will update the Akismet Auntie Spam soon or someone else does or someone comes up with another type of script or WordPress plugin that does the same thing.

It is no longer available in the latest version of WordPress. It’s a bit frustrating but you can use the checkbox at the top of the comments panel section to select all or unselect all. Thanks for reminding me to update this post.

Since upgrading to 2.7.1 I can no longer find the “mass edit mode” as an option anywhere on the page. Also can’t get it to show comments as a table. Instead all I can do is click the author button and select 20 at a time. I’m hoping you can re-orient me.

I know what a clever programmer *could* do. And I know what spammers are *actually* doing now, because the math problem actually works.

If by “actually works” you mean “causes me to not comment on your blog and not bother to subscribe to it or read it in any future way at all”, then yeah, I suppose it could be said to work.

When I see that I have to jump through your weird hoops to comment, then I don’t comment. Instead, I leave and don’t return. And I’m not alone.

You’re perfectly welcome to like your system. I’m simply telling you that your system loses viewers, readers, and commenters. Being one of those that your system would lose, I am absolutely certain of what I’m saying.

Okay?

Engtech: The new version of Auntie is incredible. I love the new layout and sorting. Much, much, much improved. Well done. And congrats!
