Yes, I get about 100 Anon spams a day. Flippin annoying. I sent a note to blogger about a lot of them coming into my 'pending' box, when they should be going into the 'spam' box. Trouble is, it isn't a person, it is a machine that's sending them. Seems the only way to get rid of them is to not allow Anon comments, but then I get a lot of real people comenting as Anon.
I don't understand why people want to be anonymous and why they have to be so awful. At least you can delete their comments so then their time has been wasted. Carolx
I changed my settings so I don't allow anonymous comments anymore and that seems to have sorted it. It was getting ridiculous the amount of spam I was getting.
I don't have a blog, so always (when I can), comment as "anonymous", but I always leave my name. When blogs don't allow anon comments, I can't comment!
Blah to the annoying person. And yes, Joy is a lovely name :)
ReplyDeleteMe too!! I changed my settings so that anonymous comments weren't allowed.
ReplyDeleteI think that's a good idea for you Mum!

That is what I did - I found that it was enough , and so was able to remove the very annoying word verification.
ReplyDeleteHope you can sort it soonest - it is very irritating isn't it!
Thank you for my birthday wishes, hope your annoying visitor leaves you alone.

Mine go into Spam, which I then delete, after having a laugh at some of the web site titles they want me to view.
