  Hi,

  I’m getting tons of user registration spam. And I don’t know what to do about it. It’s starting to slowly get on my nerves, to be honest. :D

  I’m probably doing something wrong. But crawling the internets showed nothing interesting (plugins seem to be the way to go, but it appears they aren’t allowed on wordpress.com).

  Have a nice day,
  Thanks in advance. :)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Define ‘user registration spam’.

  Wait a sec.

  Looking more closely, this is sent from something that shouldn’t happen.

  Must be my mistake. I’ll look into it a bit more.

  Yeah, right, I’m definitely an idiot.

  Before setting up a blog on WP.com, I set another one somewhere else. I forgot about it. That’s the one being user spammed (tons of users called for example 52gETREcde8 being registered).

  Sorry for bothering you. I’ll now go and cry over my own stupidity.
