Moderation of the blog
October 2, 2008 by Melissa
Just an FYI for people starting to use my new blog. I do not actually moderate the comments, that is done through a plugin to keep me from being constantly spammed. I know that sometimes it picks up comments that are NOT spam, but before I draw a name for any contest, I check to make sure nothing was moderated and no one was left out.
I did not moderate, ie throw people’s comments into the spam, it is done autmomatically. I’ve gotten a few nasty emails and it is seriously making me think that I might not do blog contests anymore. All I can say is the alternative is for me to open it up completely and allow people to spam at will. I just don’t want to do that, I am sorry.
Again, if you comment and you get a message saying you were moderated, rest assured I go through the comments before pulling any winners. So you are not missing out on the contest. Your name, if you comment on the right day and before the end of the contest, will go in the pot.
Thank you for understanding.
