I have comment moderation which allows me to see all comments before I post them. I can also depend on the spam filter (which sometimes catches perfectly good comments as well so you have to make sure you check it!) and I haven't had any spam at all. I am not going to stop commenting on every blog that still has it, like some people, but I do wish everyone would quit using it. Still, if you are getting spam, I understand.A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-6696310338597587832012-03-03T19:45:58.798-08:002012-03-03T19:45:58.798-08:00I turned off word verification on my blogs too for...I turned off word verification on my blogs too for any posts newer than two weeks; older posts have to be verified because that's where I would get spam.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />PamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-30720745554763723592012-03-03T19:31:53.157-08:002012-03-03T19:31:53.157-08:00Hope you had a fabulous day with your friends toda...Hope you had a fabulous day with your friends today!<br />Looking forward to reading all about it. <br />(just an aside- the word verification thing is annoying, but worth not having a ton of spam...I too found I was getting hit with tons of it, so am leaving the verification alone for now as well)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09673095643583804417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-116061752441257596.post-52177533546056564942012-03-03T11:58:49.228-08:002012-03-03T11:58:49.228-08:00Are the comments actually appearing on your blog, ...Are the comments actually appearing on your blog, or are they getting caught by Blogger's spam filter?

So I put the word verification back on and the spam stopped. Oh how fun! I would love to go on a quilt store excursion.
