Bad start to the day

Half awake when I check my email after getting up, I find yet another objectionable comment on my blog (an unsolicited advert for a superb system that WILL make me money, sic) which I set about reporting as spam, only to get the message "We're sorry, but we were unable to complete your request." Presumably there's a new bug in the works. I then try going to the comments page on Blogger and in a fury accidentally delete six months of bona fide comments on my blog by friends and relations. There's no way of getting these back now.

I doubt whether blogger is sorry about that too, but I am, very.

  1. That's very annoying... and while I don't intend to insult blogger, my wordpress blog has had no spam on it whatsoever. The spam checking appears to be flawless (famous last words)!

    I don't think you'll want to change URL again (although you could buy a domain, of course), but you might want to think about wordpress in the long run...

  2. Oh bummer!

    I'm not sure why I never have any spam, it probably has something to do with not being active enough. Perhaps this year will yield more as I am trying to blog everyday. Sorry you lost it all!
