I use word verification. Although that does not keep all spammers away, it does a pretty good job. Most do not want to spend the time putting in those letters. I really wish spammers would leave us alone. Sheesh. Hugssss
I HATE word verification. It\’s time consuming for your readers. There are times it has taken be four tries to leave a message. There have also been times I gave up and didn\’t leave a message. Comment moderation is my choice. That way nothing gets in your comments without your approval. Just saying. Have a great day. I\’m going to do your word verification now. Did I tell you that I HATE word verification? 🙂
Tracy, I wish they would leave us along as well. you would think blogger would do a better job of finding the spammers and locking them out.Or have a way of reporting spamming sites and blocking them.Sandee,I hate the word verification as well. I guess I will just stick to the comment moderating. I wish I did not have to this. I just want to have fun and not be hastled.
I can certainly understand going either way with protection from spammers. I don\’t do either. I simply delete really offensive comments. I don\’t know why people are so mean, frankly.
Mari.I hate word verification as well.Professor J. maybe I will just go back to letting every post and not moderate the comments I just hope I dont have to spen an hour deleting the same comment over and over again as when I was attacked by a spammer the last time.
Welcome to my blog. I post things that I feel must be said. I will post Prayer Requests when I find them. I will try to do my best to be a good blogger and will try to not step on too many toes. May God bless all that visit with me. THE BLOG IS THE SAME ONLY THE NAME WAS CHANGED, TO PROTECT THE SILLINESS! (With a Nod To Dragnet)

I\’m glad you went with comment moderation. I hate the word verification and sometimes I can\’t get it right.
