Technical Difficulties
It has been brought to my attention that some readers are having difficulty leaving comments. My apologies to any of you who have been getting error messages that say that you have left too many comments in too short a time. This is a bunch of bunk, of course, and I do really want to read whatever it was that you kindly took time from your day to try to post!
Unfortunately, this is a problem that I have experienced repeatedly on the site and my web host insists that there is nothing wrong. I have asked them to look into the issue again and hope that we can find a solution. Finally.
Do you think there is some sort of trickster cyber faery living in my code? I'm not sure technical support is prepared to deal with faery mischief.
In the mean time, I can share the trick I use if this happens to me when I am trying to respond to a comment someone has left. I switch browsers. I'm not sure if it is that Movable Type doesn't recognize you if you are commenting from a different browser, but somehow this works for me. (I usually use Safari and switch to Firefox to get around this bizarre comment problem.) If any of you have the patience to go to this length to leave a comment at Blogickal.
I certainly do appreciate when someone cares enough to comment! I will try to remedy this as soon as possible.
Love and blessings to you, my friendly readers.
UPDATE
My web host tells me that this problem is related to the Captcha password feature. For some reason, when the Captcha code isn't entered properly the error message one receives is this crazy thing about posting too many times. How stupid is that!?
I have asked them to fix the error message so that it communicates to the commenter what the error they made actually is.
Also, try posting comments without previewing. Until they can install Captcha on the preview page, trying to post a comment after previewing will also create a problem.
See, there is a trickster faery living in my code!
