SORRY


Blogger has changed the word verification and what was previously a simple spam filter
is often now very difficult to work out and very time consuming.

I've been giving it three attempts and then giving up,
 so if you don't hear from me and you have this new word verification, I'm sorry.
 I'll come back to your blog later when I have more time and give it another go if I can.

Cheers.

    It's been driving me crazy since they changed it. So far I've persevered, and it's usually taking me a couple of attempts on each comment to get it right. I'm getting to the stage if someone has word verification on, I'm not going to comment. I'm sorry too.

    I feel the same way. There is a way to turn the word verification off. I don't remember how, but I think if you go to "help" and ask it will walk you through

    it is a pain in the a*rse!

    I turned mine off and use moderation settings. That way if there's some rubbish been posted by spammers, I just delete it before it gets published.

    I just saw my first one this morning. I swear they are now trying to make it as difficult as possible for us. Yes, what a pain it is.

    When they get all this negative feedback, I expect it will go back to the old system.
    Kath's comment reminded me of an old saying when I was at work.
    If something new didn't work we would write 'BOTTOMS' on the drawings.
    It stood for -
    "Back Over To The Old Manual System!"
