(I say "nearly all" because I have gotten some human beings who are posting the same certifiably nutty rant on every blog that mentions "Jesus" or "9-11." They're not commenting on MY blog, they're just commenting on ANY blog. I delete most comments with conspiracy theories that are nuttier than my own, in a so-far futile attempt to not be grouped with wackos. [Now that I think about it, every conspiracy comment has gotten through, so maybe <I><B>I'm</B></I> the one who's ready for the rubber room.] But anybody who has anything coherent to say about MY blog gets through, whether I agree or disagree with the comment.)Kevin Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16928605106263140137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567970460917774803.post-24733869488968140832008-08-03T15:06:00.000+00:002008-08-03T15:06:00.000+00:00Thank you newsy I'm glad someone decided to explai...Thank you newsy I'm glad someone decided to explain the purpose of the moderation and I can appreciate trying not to be spammed, I just thought the log-in verification sequence prevented that from happening.<BR/><BR/>It is also good to hear that you don't block any comments from your blogtomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156943875749350309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567970460917774803.post-60553456658749491522008-08-03T13:49:00.000+00:002008-08-03T13:49:00.000+00:00I moderate comments on my blog for one main reason...I moderate comments on my blog for one main reason. <BR/><BR/>I have found that I get about 5 to 6 spam blog messages a week. People advertising sites is not something I want my readers to click upon, especially when you never know what site they are promoting. A couple of those wrong clicks and your blog can lose credibility!<BR/><BR/>I have also never denied a comment because of what was posted.GCookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01126311999016318829noreply@blogger.com
