Do we have plugin to stop comment spams? I don't think anti-splog is capable of stopping comment spam, because I couldn't find a feature within this plugin that says it will do just that. I think it's wise to develop a plugin to stop comment spams and provide a robust comment spam checking.

It's been my thought that the reason we're not doing a comment spam plugin is because it's already so well done on the non-premium market. Besides Akismet, which might cost a pretty penny for commercial use, there's still TypePad Anti-spam for unlimited personal and commercial use.
An excerpt from the description...
"The service is free to anyone who wants to use it for both personal and business use, regardless of how many comments you receive."
Needless to say, it's hard to compete with that! :)
