Here at Fine Woodworking, we love the free flow of information.
That’s why we let you comment at will on our blogs without slowing things down by making everything pass by a moderator before you can post.
However, we’ve noticed an increase of spam comments on our Taunton Press sites. If you notice any, please alert us and send an email to fw-web (at) taunton.com so we can remove it as soon as possible.
Thanks for your help in policing the site. We’d rather act quickly to remove bogus comments rather than slowing down everyone’s communication by requiring moderation for all comments.
Thanks for the help! Gina

A lot of sites that allow comments have a "Report Spam" button associated with each comment. Not a bad idea...
Thanks for the suggestion. I forwarded it on to our development team. -Gina, FineWoodworking.com
Have you thought about using a service like Akismet or Mollum.
I personally use Mollum. I like it because it requires the commenter to do nothing unless the service thinks the comment looks like spam -- then it requires the commenter to solve a CAPTCHA to continue posting.
Thanks for the suggestion Benjamen. We should have CAPTCHA stuff up in the next few weeks. The only thing is doesn't that only help when you're trying to prevent machines, not real people from posting?
Unfortunately, I believe that some of the spamming posts that I've seen late is actually coming from a real person.
Im not sure if this is the forum. I'll post anyway.
I'd like to verify your address. My online sub has been cancled.?? im still posting here so it does'nt sound right.
I paid for 2years last december and have received an email telling me that there's trouble with it. The return email to reply is "Fine Woodworking" ?? Is this truly the right one?. How come I can post here and see my favorites page etc and still be wiped.? thx john
