I got so tired of being blocked from my own blog when I tried to test comments or other features that I decided to turn off Akismet completely. I've also disabled the Bad Behavior WordPress plugin. I thought it behaved badly.
I've installed the WP No-Bot Question plugin instead. I wonder if I'll get any bot spam now. *fingers crossed*
Edit: I've gotten one spam comment and one spam sign-up since I disabled Akismet... I might have to turn it back on again...
Edit 2: I got a couple of trackback spams so I disabled trackbacks... let's see how it works now...
