rickd3352013 I dumped Disqus late summer of last year and haven’t looked back. Why? Long before this was even hinted, I was having doubts about how a service like that could continue to stay free, but what finally tripped the trigger was after writing a detailed response to a poster on my blog and hitting the “Post” button, I received a message that they were updating the API. Fifteen minutes of work (like I said, it was a *detailed* response) gone into bit hell. Akismet, CommentLuv and GASP keep me spam-free, the comment system runs smoothly and the only time the API changes is when Automattic changes things up.
