JaranBlog is back!
Some of you might have noticed that my blog has been offline for a few days. I got an e-mail from my host last week informing me that some script on my site kept overloading their database server and they needed to perform frequent restarts to solve it.
Because of this I had to take the site offline untill I could resolve the
issue and now I am back up. I decided to start over, with a fresh new install of a newer version of WordPress and keep all the old posts in a backed up version (will be available shortly!).
The reason for this whole mess was apparently google bots continously requesting the CAPTCHA i protected my comment system with, according to my host. Whether this is the case or some spam artist consealed himself as a google bot, I don’t know. And I don’t really care.
Now I am back in a new format and hopefully with less load on my host’s database server

How do you deal with comment spam now?

Will probably install a better captcha if they start spamming me again

Glad to see you’re back! The other morning when my bookmark said “Bookmark failed to load”, I was afraid you’d given up on blogging altogether. The continued existence of the rest of jaranweb gave me hope. I always enjoy the updates from your side of the globe.

Good to have you back! I was thinking “he’s not playing wow and not blogging, what’s going on??”
Anyway, as mentioned a few times in the past maybe you should consider toning down the security level of the captcha or get a whole new one all toghether, no wonder it takes down the server when it is more secure than NSA’s main frame

[…] most of you probably have noticed, the blog recently got updated. Because I was running a version of WordPress from ancient times, it was no way I would get to […]
