In another round of spam fighting, I've implemented a
captcha system. This means that in order to enter a comment, you'll need to type the word that appears in the image next to the comment box. This is retroactive to commenting on all past posts as well, so get used to it.
Captchas aren't always images containing words that are hard for computers to decode. They're any system that tries to provide an easy solution for humans, and a difficult one for machines. Witness
Hotcaptcha:
I've also implemented an internal change that will highlight the comments made by authenticated nullstream authors. This change is not retroactive, but new comments made will include the feature, as seen below.
