I know the big deal is now trackbacks, but this would help those that don't want to have their comments closed. What if we inserted something like email services do, where if you want to leave a comment you have to type the word that you see in a little random jpg, and it would just be a short series of random letters or a random word.

I will be making them available soon, and people will be able to decide whether to use them or not.
Posted by Pixy Misa at April 7, 2005 01:06 PMWhy are they so evil? Besides the fact that they are an utter pain.
Posted by Mookie at April 7, 2005 04:12 PMIs it possible to have it work only on older posts? I'd be fine with having that feature, but finer with not having to make legit guests use it on recent posts.
