word verification

I really don't like word verifications or when you have to sign in with your name, email and blog address. BUT I'm starting to get a LOT of spam and it's all about viagra, so I think I might have to start. I know a lot of you don't like that stuff and I hope I don't lose readers because of it.

Don't care about the verification but I care that I can't comment on just any blog, thanks for enabling Name/URL.

You gotta do what you have to do. it's bad enough when you get e-mail about viagra and other related topics.
We'll keep on commenting !

Long live Viagra.

I'd key in a few letters to stay current with my Joanie. Easy Peasy.

Once they find you there's really not choice but to. I wish I didn't have to have it as well.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm not a fan but what I really don't like is when I don't know a blog has verification and I leave the post before I realize I needed to type in the word. In other words, I'm not going anywhere. YOu're stuck with me :-)

Hey, I've been plagued with this also and I'm very much considering doing likewise. Seems like your followers are having similar probs. Yep, word verification is on the cards.

Have a great Saturday Joanie:-)

I know what you mean.

I never started getting spam until the day I was featured on SITS. Now, I still don't get a ton of it, but I get them once in awhile, and, for some reason, always in anonymous comments on the same post from February of 2008.

I guess "tetedi" is a small price to pay.

Martha said...

I got one yesterday... i hope i don't get more, cause I really don't want to put word verification back!

Have a great weekend!

Joanie said...

Thanks everyone! You're all the greatest!

Word Verification can be fun. Creating definitions for a nonsense word.

WV: reloting: Loting all over again.

people don't like word ver, but no one is going to leave you because of it!

i am getting a bunch of spam too..all in foreign languages, so I may have to resort to the same thing. dang.

I just have moderation on so I can delete the spam, but my readers don't have to do word verification. It has the added bonus of making sure I read every comment carefully.
