My Racy ToyBox Blog

To be fair, I have to admit that I didn’t pay a lot of attention to the WP-SpamFree plugin installation on this powered-by-Wordpress Blog, but that’s not so unusual, really. Many, perhaps most, plugins download and auto-install and only need to be activated before they go about doing their thing, whatever it is.

Well, we  have a lot of new and updated stuff being worked on, and this blog is one of the new ones. After puttng the updated site online, there were, and still are, many, many aspects to complete or improve, and, after a few blog posts, we had a half dozen comments and several spam. So we deleted the spam, and looked for a plugin to control that a bit. This is where WP-Spamfree plugin comes in, and, unfortunately, we go out. We simply activated it, and went on to more pressing things, saying that when we had human blogger ready and willing, we’d get back to blogging.

Yesterday ToyboxCharley, now anxious to get this blog active and valuable, posted an article about Lubricants for Sex (Click to Read) and noted that it was certainly unusual to have all that time pass without even one comment to the blog. It was then that I saw a line on the administration dashboard that said with some pride that 73 spam comments had been blocked by the WP-Spamfree plugin. So we went out and tried a little comment to one of the posts. On pressing the Submit button the browser produced a page-not-found, and essentially blew us (acting as a commenter) away. When I went back into administration, I found that WP-Spamfree had ceremoniously added another kill to its count and was now touting 74 ’spam’ comments blocked. There may be some technically sound explanation for this, but I find it difficult to blame us, the innocent user, for anything except letting it go on for so long. We are aware that certainly some of the comments were spam, but I would gladly pick them out manually at this time of low activity, in order to respectfully welcome those good folk who wanted to  make an addition to our blog.

Under any circumstance, I deactivated the plugin, tried the same little test comment, and it went in perfectly.

I’m sure we will not hear from those offended, but we offer our sincere apology to them, and hope that maybe someday, some of them will find their way back to us.
