Let's take a look at this week's question:
QUESTION: Blogger pet peeves? (Like when I've drafted an entire post, ready to publish it, and I see somewhere I've left out a html code... When I didn't even do my post in html)
ANSWER: I have two pet peeves that I can think of right now:
(1) When I finish writing a post, and something goes wacky to where not only does it stop autosaving, but when I try to publish the post, blogger says that there was an "error" and it cannot be published. This is extremely frustrating, and I've actually lost entire posts (and had to rewrite them) in the past. Fortunately this hasn't happened to me in a really, really long time, so I think blogger fixed that bug.
(2) I absolutely, unequivocally LOVE comments!!! They make me so happy!!! But on the last or second to last post I made before I went into my unscheduled/unofficial blogging hiatus, I received a couple comments that were spam messages. It's just a bummer when I get all excited to see that someone's commented on one of my posts, and then when I go and look at it, the comment has nothing to do with anything. Again, that hasn't happened in a while, but that's the only other pet peeve I can really think of.
Well, that's all for this Friday, folks! Until next time! :D

Yes!! I hate those spammy comments too! But I have no idea what you meant by the first one. You know what I hate? It has nothing to do with blogger itself but I hate my stupid wifi that keeps saying 'This page cannot be displayed.' Do you have any idea how annoying that is?

Basically what I mean is there ends up being an error so my draft gets deleted before it's published.
DeleteHaha yeah that is very annoying--it's happened to me a few times before.
Thanks for commenting, M! :)
I lurve comments and hate it when that spammy one gets through and I get excited for no reason too!!

I have two plugins that have been doing a good job keeping spammers at bay. It is rare one gets through, but when he does, it goes straight to the spam pile, and never makes it live.

That sounds awesome, Guy! If the spam comments show up again, I might look into that.

I get so much spam! But because I use Disqus and the spam is posted through Blogger, I never see them! The publishing posts issue seems to be universal. So annoying!
ReplyDeleteHere's my F&F!
Ooh, maybe I should start using Disqus. It looks more high tech then what I'm used to using, so hopefully it's not too complicated.

I love getting comments too! I haven't received any spam (yet), but I always get disappointed when no one comments on my posts (anyone reading them out there? Anyone?)

#FF hoping by ^_^
ReplyDeleteThanks for hopping by, Ailyn :)
DeleteI love getting comments too but it seems to be happening less and less, makes me rather sad to be honest and the spam comments just annoy the heck out of me.

I'm with you, Thea. The number of comments I get are less and less too (which I mainly have to blame myself for, since I took such a long hiatus). Hopefully it will pick up again soon--I remember when I first started doing FF, there were over 200 bloggers hoping through each Friday! Let's get back to that!
DeleteThanks for stopping by and commenting! :)
I haven't had any spam yet. I guess I've been lucky.
ReplyDeleteI would have followed you, but I couldn't find a way to do it other than GFC which I don't use. Anyway, I really like your blog's design.
Here's my FF
You have definitely been lucky, Books That Hook.
DeleteYeah, I'm not sure how to add GFC or Blogluvin' and/or other following stuff...I'm not very good with the technical side of my blog....
