I’ve been doing some changing on this blog today. But when doing debugging I found out that WordPress 1.5 automatically generates rel=’external nofollow’ in links from comments. That’s not acceptable, because I want legitimate comment writers to get higher Google ranking. To make it much harder for the spammers by adding a picture with text you have to write before posting. I know it’s not ideal, but I’ve seen a big increase in spam the latest week and I won’t give spammers any Google Ranking if possible.
