I've been in my own boat sitting out in this water looking at this view. Awesome!-Sandee. This is a Tip of The Hat to Sandee, my Co-Author and blog wizard.

The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

comment moderation or word verification?

I do not know what is best to do to protect this site from spammers.do I use comment mederation or word verifcation or both. I need som advice. and would like your input.

6 comments:

  1. 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

  2. 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? :)

  3. 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.

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

  5. 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.

  6. 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.
