    Hey guys,

    Even with Spam Karma/Akismet, my database is filling up fast with comments. Can anyone recommend me the best captcha plugin for Wordpress?

    Thanks

    The reCAPTCHA WordPress plugin uses a CAPTCHA to prevent comment spam please check it in http://recaptcha.net/plugins/wordpress/

    In my opinion there is no needs for captcha. look at the pattern of spam you get. To tell you there is a pattern. i don't use captcha or akismet. 95% of spam post are marked as spam by comment filter.

    Yes that is what I observed too - 90% about is done by that filter.
    I deleted those two plugins since quite awhile, set outoapproval with email report and got some nice backlinks from not spamming commentors.
