Spam made me do it.
I had to make a change to how comments can be posted on my blog. You will now have to be logged in to post a comment. Why? Well, at first it was just one little email saying, WordPress - Please Moderate Comment(s). Inside the email there was a comment from someone I don’t know and have never heard of, with a comment like, “great site!” and 50 or so links under the comment for viagra. No big deal, I simply marked the comment as spam and moved on. Then I started getting these emails two and three times a week. I couldn’t just turn of the moderator notifications - that’s how I met some of you guys.
I had to do something when I started getting four or five of them a day. By requiring users to be logged in to post a comment, spammers will not be able to send me these “buy my stuff” links. This also means, however that you have to be logged in to post a comment. I really enjoy reading your comments and it encourages me to keep posting, keep cycling, keep dieting, etc. So I really do hope you will sign in and post. If you haven’t yet registered, you can do so here (http://sackrider.org/myblog/wp-register.php).
If you enjoyed it - DIGG it:
Loggin in is not a problem, Dale. At least not as big a problem as trying to format my comments into paragraphs!
Perhaps a good ol’ break tag will do the trick.
I knew my password but the stupid user name is case sensitive.
OK bro,
It has been a week, I want to know what is going on.
