I use a comment filter on this blog called spam karma. A few people have hinted that it is difficult to get their comments onto the blog and perhaps it is spam karma causing trouble. There are a few things it does like making it harder to comment on old posts, treating you with suspicion if you haven’t commented before (and it keeps a score of your previous karma so once it gets into it’s head that you’re a spammer it can be hard to convince it otherwise) as well as the usual checks for spammy words, super fast commenting etc…

If you have trouble with the spam filter, drop me an email so I know about it yo.checkit awithacirclearoundit gmail.com.

Also an apology to those of you who have been in comment moderation and I haven’t gotten around to approving it for a week or two. I really like comments!
