UPDATE 9/10/10 Comments will no longer go live unless you already have one approved in this blog with the same name, email and URL. I had to check the box under discussions that you must already have one comment approved to keep the real spam off the site.

Just stopping by to say hi! I think cookies for comments also is a great spam blocker.

You’re in better shape than most Ron. You don’t appear to be flagged as a spammer. How much commenting do you do?
Read the comment just below this one though. My comment in my own GrowMap blog went into moderation but the exact same comment – EXACTLY the same down to the post I used in CommentLuv and being careful not to put trailing spaces in any field – went live immediately in both this blog and at GrokHorses.
I definitely have prior approved comments in GrowMap using the name Gail @ CommentLuv so that really makes no sense. I hope it doesn’t indicate that WordPress is randomly sending our comments into moderation without cause.

I hate when I get a white page after leaving a comment.Test
NOTES from GrowMap: This comment went directly to spam.
Whenever you see the white screen that indicates your comment was immediately deleted because that blogger has a box checked in their Akismet configuration that does that.
If your comment does not immediately appear and you do NOT see the message that it is being moderated that means your comment went directly into SPAM. If you contact the blogger to let them know most will look for your comment and consider approving it.
Here are my recommendations:
1) Always copy your comments BEFORE you submit them so you can paste them back in if necessary.
2) Use the blogger’s contact form or Twitter or any other method you see to let the blogger know. If you see a white screen send them this link. If you do not see a message that your comment is being moderated ask them to look for your comment in spam.
3) Contact Akismet to ask to be unflagged as a spammer. Avoid commenting in blogs you know to be unfriendly to what you write to lengthen the amount of time before you end up flagged as a spammer again.

Hi Sire,
I did express to Ann that commenting in blogs about the Akismet problem was probably not the best way to do that; however, we can not argue with the fact that it did eventually get results.

The exact comment above was sent for moderation at GrowMap but not here and not at GrokHorses.

Interesting test Gail.
I have seen that white screen of oblivion after a few of my comment submissions.
I figured they just didn’t like dentists.
Nah… everybody LOVES the dentist.

Don’t know how to text it but i am posting this test comment here. I am even using Akismet but not sure at what basis it mark the comments as spam!
Maybe it takes IP in concern or links in comment section or something else!

Hi Nick,
You’re in luck – Akismet does NOT think you are a spammer – at least not today.

This is fun. Now if I mention a phrase saying you can get white teeth or something like that and this gets flagged as spam then we’ll know if Aliens have taken over your Akismet.

Why is everyone testing? If you aren’t spamming then you shouldn’t have to test, you should just comment on the blog without worry.

This is a topic close to my heart cheers, found you through Bing.
I am very new to the net and needed to research this subject. Thought it was a well written entry very well written and informative. I will surely be coming back to your website to read more posts as i adored this one..
Hey… It looks like there’s a problem with the layout of the page. For some reason the text block is running into the edge. I don’t know if it’s just me or are others reporting the same thing? Just wanted to let you know in case you’ve been updating the site. Thanks!
You certainly deserve a round of applause for your post and more specifically, your blog in general. Very high quality material.
I enjoyed reading your blog. Keep it that way.
Awesome post and must say it got my attention. I was browsing online and saw your site and am glad i found it.
Hi – very good web site you have established. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to issue a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically pleasing. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed playing with information processing systems and am attempting to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
Thank you in support of getting the time to talk about this, I think strongly about that and love learning a lot more on this subject. If achievable, when you acquire expertise, would you mind updating your blog with additional facts? It is extremely very helpful.
