Several people have emailed me today to say that they are unable to leave comments and that they are getting an error message that says their comments are “denied due to ‘questionable’ content.”
I have no idea why Moveable Type comments act so weirdly, but today a lot of comments, including mine if I use the word “online” in my URL, which is a problem because my url is whatsnextonline.com. please email me and let me know if you have the same problem. I will send all the “questionable” content to Six Apart and ask to look at it.
Moveable Type, what’s up with the comments???
Anyhow, I wanted this comment, about my comment policy, to run:
“Debates are often interesting, and I am open to constructive criticism.”
I totally agree with you!
“Calling me, people I write about, or those who comment on this blog rude names is unacceptable.”
I would agree with you, yet you have posted over at Shel’s blog that my company, and me by association as the spokesperson, is “dumb”. I guess we all find different words rude. This is one of mine.
You seem like a highly articulate person, which leads me to believe that you could have been much more effective with a comment worded differently.
And yes, before you say it, when I get my own blog I can make my own rules…I know…
Basically, though, BL, I agree with you and hope everyone abides by your rules.

I applaud you, BL, and hope that your tech issues are fixed quickly!

That error is coming from MT-Blacklist and most like you added something to it recently (like a period or just http://) which is causing it to be blocked. If you look in your activity log, you will find the culprit.
Actually, there was an elipses that might have caused a problem. The thing is quirky, but it does cut down on spam.
Yes, I have had several problems posting comments here, and yes, they had the word online. Hope it will be fixed soon. :-)
I fixed that one, but others are sure to crop up. I would b wildly appreciative if you could let me know if you have a problem posting comments again.
Thanks!
