Speak to me (part two)...

Well it turns out that it takes 48 hours to uninstall Disqus so still no comments. Argh.

The reason for my failed foray into the world if HTML and all things IT was the odd comments I have been getting. It seems that when some comments are translated, weird things happen. The comment is a series of boxes and full stops. And when I click on the line of full stops I get directed to a website that I deem dodgy. Very dodgy indeed.

So.

I am so sorry but if you are a commenter (commentor?) and your comment is translated (with that dodgy link)I will delete it. And if it carrys on I will have to block your blog. I hate having to do this as I love comments, and lets face it who doesn't, but I hate dodgy-ness even more.

The comments could be spam and research I did led me to believe they may be, which in turn led me to Disqus and there my cleverness ended.

This is why I outsource IT for my little business. I am IT illiterate. The end.

Could you just put comment moderation on so you check the comment before it appears on your blog? That's what I do and I just reject the spam ones and publish the legit ones

Dear http://seankurt88.blogspot.com/

Sorry love but I have to delete your comment. After the words. the dots are leading to a dodgy dating website with some dodgy ladies....

Pens: good idea I may do that

Well I certainly hope I am not blocked - thanks for the insight, it may be happening to others even more illiterate!

Remember when I tried disqus??? What a waste of time that was! Nobody liked it. My comments dried up overnight. So I kicked it to the curb.
Try comment moderation - very wise advice from penpen!
