I have been posting a few comments and I have noticed that many weblogs powered by WordPress show blank screen after the comment submission. Is it normal or some error? If the blank screen appears, will the blog owner receive my comment for approval?
Akismet banned you ip address, from now on your comments will end up in Akismet spam list. To get rid of this issue, Use dynamic ips if you have! else, proxies are your right choice.
Hmm, another idiots who bann the IP addresses. I am on travel for many weeks and use wifi connections in the hotels where I live. So if any hotel guest post comment spam I will be banned from about 30% of weblogs. I really can't understand why people use these stupid services. Spammers will always find a solution how to change their IP address. People posting on topic comments not. So these weblog owners cannot get nothing better than more spam.
No, Akismet does't ban by IP address. They ban by the DOMAIN you put in the 'website' field, and the 'email address' you enter. If you get the blank screen when you submite a comment, try changing the domain in the website field to a completely different domain and email address that you haven't commented with before. if it goes through then your domain has been added to the Akismet spam database.
