Here We Go Again, Akismet Is Eating My Comments
 Way back in November of 2006, Akismet started eating my comments. I have no idea why except somewhere, somehow, I got stuck in someone’s Moderation or Spam cue and ended up being reported as Spam to Akismet.
At the time, I wrote a post about My Comments being Eaten. I got some good advice from my friends, but it just took a lot of perseverance and de-spamming to get the problem solved.
I do moderate my comments and try to de-spam everyone who makes legitimate comments, but it is starting to get a little overwhelming with well over 500 spams caught a day. It is getting to be very time consuming and takes away from other business responsibilities.
I know exactly When it started, but not Why. I was participating in Open Comment Night over as Successful Blog and had No Problems. But after I left and answered a comment on my own blog, My comment didn’t show. I immediately went into Akismet (after my last experience) to see if it was there. Shore enough, I was caught, right there in my own Akismet cue.
The last time, it went on for over a full week which led me to write a rant called Akismet Sucks. I was so fed up with not being able to comment anywhere I almost stopped using Akismet. However, not too long after that post, things started showing in my comments that I had written, then they started showing in other peoples comments on their blogs.
The problem went away all by itself, really with a lot of perseverance and monitoring of comments, and I got happy again and stayed with Akismet.
So, help me out here, if I comment on your Blog and it ends up in your spam cue, Please release me, let me go.
Hopefully, it wont take as long as the last episode. I don’t need the aggravation.
