For me, it's a case of "no blood, no foul."<BR/><BR/>But to confuse me with Emaw??

I guess ...I got to thinking about what Faith said. I guess the only reason it bugs me is because I have things set up so that if someone comments on one of my posts, I get an email notifying me that there is a new comment. <br /><br />Which I like, because I cherish each and every comment as though it were my own child. <br /><br />Even emaw's comments. Most of them, anyway. Well, I think there were one or two that made me chuckle. <br /><br />Or am I confusing him with Dan over at Gone Mild? <br /><br />But I digress.<br /><br />So now, I'm getting half a dozen emails a day telling me there is a new comment, and when I make the effort to go look it's just another anonymous piece of spam offering to double the size of my johnson. <br /><br />{I'll let this obvious and juvenile opportunity to make grandiose claims about my manly proportions pass in deference to my more delicate and sophisticated readers. Like emaw.} <br /><br />It's just annoying.<br /><br />I suppose I could just control it from yahoo by banishing any email from anonymous to my spam folder.<br /><br />Duh.<br /><br />Of course, I might miss out on some REAL comments by folks who just want to remain anonymous.<br /><br />Ah, fuck 'em. If they can't be bothered to make up a clever nom de plume before plopping their little turd in my literary punch bowl then I probably won't like what they say anyway.<br /><br />Thanks for letting me think out loud and sort through this situation.<br /><br />You guys are the best.<br /><br />Even emaw.Xavier Onassishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345787343828318445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-46063373636292311432007-02-06T16:31:00.000-06:002007-02-06T16:31:00.000-06:00I would make a suggestion, but I don't use Blogger...I would make a suggestion, but I don't use Blogger.<br /><br />Wordpress nicely handles all this peon nonsense.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21353439.post-57506827054568420552007-02-06T12:53:00.000-06:002007-02-06T12:53:00.000-06:00I don't understand what the problem is with having...I don't understand what the problem is with having random spam comments on ancient posts. (It happens on my blog, too...) People should be able to detect what is spam and what isn't, and if those who come aimlessly by to read our archives suddenly try to pick a fight with someone trying to get them to visit a Russian porn site, then that's their beef. (And it's also kinda sad...)<br /><br />Why does it bother you? (I haven't had a need to set up any word verification on my blog, yet.
