Not fun.

So....it's gotten turned back on again.

I understand your point. But this new word verification is a pain. If I have to try more than twice I won't do it. I will try the must verify on my blog. A real pain.

Yes its all a pain. Why does blogger keep messing with us? arrgh. Any spam I get goes to a spam file on my blog and I go in and delete it every so often. I have been having problems commenting and being rejected too. How do we complain? arrgh.

I've turned it off again, I didn't realize that the spam went into a special folder - I'll try that for awhile

It's like taking some kind of test every time you leave a comment. Maddening. I try a couple of times and give up - lol! xo

I don't have word verification, and I've only gotten spammed once or twice in all these years. I have no idea why other than to speculate that maybe it's because they know I'm going to reject their attempt to advertise on my blog.

I was having so much trouble commenting on others blogs and was hoping nobody was taking it personally! Sometimes I have tried as many as 3 times to do the word verification and just can't read what the letters are supposed to be. Usually one is readable and one is not. I don't have word verification and I've been spammed a few times, but I delete them from the folder just like Chris does.
