Housekeeping message

Jeannette has given me permission to monitor comments on this blog, and as a result I have just removed 500 spam comments.

A few things have therefore been changed:
  • Anonymous comments are no longer permitted.
  • You will be asked to complete word verification
  • All comments will be moderated prior to publication. 
I apologise for any inconvenience, but I am confident you prefer that over seeing the tributes defiled by comment spam.

Anonymous comments are the product of cowardly people who 'don't have any skin in the game' IMO. I refuse to even publish them in my humble Blog: TOM'S JOURNAL. I think your over sight and spam killing are a good idea. Thank you!

I think it is the best thing you can do. People in general are just ignorant.

Spam comments are not a tribute to anyone.

I totally agree...anyone who really knows these people won't mind leaving their names.

Jeanie said...

I wholheartedly agree Guido!
There has to be something wrong with anonymous people who leave despicable messages on a site such as this.
Thank you for taking on this extra challenge for our sakes and those who have gone before us.

I didn't realize that many J-Landers had already passed on. I visited this page for the first time only this evening. I've been gone way too long. I recognize some of the names... I saw Penny's name, but which Penny? Can someone tell me? I like that you have made a place to remember our friends.

I remember seeing some spam comments on here when I last looked in, it's the last place we want to see them. xx

I'm getting anonymous comments on my blog too. I don't know why people do that.
