Welcome to the New Year. I wanted to start with an apology. A couple of blog contributors and participants notified me that their comments were not getting through and were being marked as SPAM. I assumed I got to review all comments marked as SPAM and allow legitimate comments through, which I have been doing, but apparently there were two levels of SPAM. There seems to be an automatic SPAM deleter where I do not receive those messages or comments, but have to go through and review all the messages that have been screened and allow them through as well, this seems to be separate from other messages that are marked as spam. Once I figured that out, I found there were quite a few legitimate comments being screened out. Unfortunately, I can only go back 15 days.
I do not have any control over the SPAM filter. I believe that is an automatic program put in place by WordPress. However, I will let the administrator know about the problem. I will be more vigilant in making sure comments get through.
I really want to apologize if you took the time to write a comment and it was screened out. I have no explanation as to why it was screened out, but will try to make sure I allow all legitimate comments to be posted.
