I’ve been a Akismet/Bad Behavior loyalist since making my switch to Wordpress and so far I’ve had a lot of success, until I saw a recent post by Lorelle that got me excited about Spam Karma 2, which recently released new version 2.3.  This new version boasts better compatibility with other existing Wordpress plugins, as well as new features and bug-fixes.

Some use it as a backup to Akismet, while others seem to prefer the combination of Spam Karma and Bad Behavior to stop comment spam cold.  I’ve installed the plugin for now and will try it with Bad Behavior to see what kind of results I get compared to Akismet.  I’m hoping to go over the results here in a few weeks.

If you’ve used both, I’d love to hear which you prefer and why.
