Boo, readers

It's getting a bit spamtastic in here.

What's worse, comment moderation (more work for me, less commenter interaction) or word verification (pain in the ass for you)?

I hate word verification.

Makes the drunken, and therefore fun, commenting bothersome.

I've given up and just have the WV. I can't deal with the spam.

WV is ok, it's the only chance you ever get to type something like "windshlurf", other than by accident.

Or even "pricaled", which is what I was actually given.

I don't mind word verification because I like to see what letter combos I get like "sinseen" or "dogworn"

Bethany said...

Wow, your blog readers have great attitudes.
I fucking hate word verification.
But I will do it for you, of course.

Jo said...

Well... I don't know. I'm hoping if I leave it on for a little, the spammers will f off. I fucking hate it too.

Martin said...

Boo Hiss....

Jo said...

Actually, it's so bad maybe I'll just docomment moderation. But that's spoils the flow.

Not that you're talking to eachother that much anyway, I suppose... hmmm.

Of course, I'd need to post something first to make any ofthis consideration valid...

Martin said...

I engage... Boo Hiss!

Jo said...

Yeah, but mostly with me, in fairness...

Martin said...

Well, it is kind of your blog...

Plus, in fairness, you do hang around with some odd types.

Gay porn peddlers, mad Floridian hippies, wizard of Oz characters to name but a few...

(and the word verification is NAVAL, the irony is edible)

Jo said...

That's right! Gaze, babies, gaze!

Martin said...

Thought it was ironic given that the Irish blog award nominations are open today.

And your penchant for sailors...

Hello. Is my clock wrong?

Mwa said...

I do think it would be funny if you got it - after all the abuse you gave me for having it when I DIDN'T! (I know you have moderation on - you can delete this. :-) )

Jo said...

Iput it on and took it off again, sonow I'm moderating to save you all hassle. least I can do...

I still have to press comment up to 3 times on your blog though, Mwa... that's the bit I hate most, I do like a nice wv word.

I got Shidammit on ms moon's today :)

Shidammit!
