Spamming VS Commenting

Thank you for posting on my blog, but as of the last entry, there are many spam commenting, where you are advertising your own blog, which is all right, but you have got to stop putting so much text in the posting if it does not relate to my blog, or my entry. I appreciate the fact you feel that placing an ad for your site will be seen by people looking at my blog but please, none of the comments even relate.

Comments:
Maurice is surprised at your uncharacteristic geniality towards the bastards who clutter your site with their worthless spam. Is there any way you can delete their shit?
 
Blogspot/blogger has a tool to reduce, if not eliminate, blogspam.

In your account, click the "Settings" tab, then click the "Comments" subtab. Scroll down to "Show word verification for comments?" and click "Yes".

According to blogger.com, "What this does is to prevent automated systems from adding comments to your blog, since it takes a human being to read the word and pass this step."

Hope this helps.
