Now Moderating Your Comments (sigh!)

So when I received a spam comment today that was nearly pornographic in it's language (nearly is being polite), I decided I can't trust the cyber-world while I'm in China. Rather than require you to register with blogger to post a comment, though, I am leaving anonymous posting on. Instead, I am going to moderate the comments.

This means that when you try to post a comment, it will not appear immediately on screen. I will get an e-mail with your comment, and if I approve it, it will then show up online. I just don't have the time to check for gross spam posts, and this way if I let your comments pile up, they will still be here when I get home. Of course, I am planning to check my e-mail while away, and my plan is to approve the comments (that are not disgusting), but I wanted to give you all a warning so you don't get frustrated when you try to post and nothing happens. (And yes, I do realize that this post will not eliminate your frustration, but I'm hopeful it'll mitigate the emotion.)

I totally understand. I hate spam comments.
