Okay, I know that a lot of you are being introduced to the ugly world of comment spam on your blogs. I’m sorry to say, I’ve been dealing with it for months, though it has gotten worse recently.
Christine D., I can trump your 5 spam comments overnight. My tally overnight was 23 comments, only 2 of which were valid. I have to approve all comments before they actually make it through my blog, but I’m getting tired of even doing that, so I think I’ll be installing a word verification plugin on my blog this weekend.
For those of you who use Blogger, many of you have already discovered the word verification feature that you can use. My only request to you (as a non-Blogger member) is, if you turn on word verification, please consider turning back on your anonymous comments. Please, please, please! I can no longer comment on so many of your blogs now, and that makes me sad. I know how much I enjoy getting comments and I’d love to be able to return the favor. Thanks! 🙂
Hi Jenna – Thea’s newsletter just came out this afternoon – isn’t it wonderful that this one calls for DMC?? Yay!
oh, I forgot to do THAT. So Very Sorry ….
Once blogger gave the option of word verification … I switched it ON right away. The crummy comments were mounting & how annoying is that?
didn’t realize I forgot the switch …. will go do that now. You are the sweetest peach to plea for comment privileges ; )
Just for you, Jenna! lol – I will go allow anonymous comments now!
23 comments! wow! You win!
