Thanks to Spam!

We at NGC must first apologize to all our wonderful readers and visitors to this site.

Over the last month or so, NGC’s Blog has been inundated with spam and bogus comments that has flooded our inboxes with annoying spam. We thought we could get away with not using anti-spam filtering and anti-pingbacks, but we were wrong.

So, in order for us to keep writing more, we have to spend less time moderating and deleting these fake comments. With that being said, we have installed ReCaptcha protection on all of our comment pages for each post in order to prevent spambots and other intruders from messing up a good thing.

I know this additional step can be annoying and that reading the little crooked letters in the ReCaptcha box can be annoying. We hope our loyal readers and contributors understand this necessary step and this doesn’t prevent you from providing all your wonderful feedback.

We would love to hear from you and maybe a good story regarding spam. Lately, we have a few as well.

Take care,

NGC Team
