I hate comment moderation

I understand that spam is heavily used in blog comments but i feel there are relatively efficient ways to filter it besides comment moderation - image check for instance or a similar method.

If the author does not like different point of views maybe blogging is the wrong activity - for instance create a website or turn comments off altogether. And if some comment is really out of order (like fowl language, etc) delete it afterwards.

Maybe i was not clear, maybe i did not explain myself correctly but .. i really hate comment moderation :P

Tenho um blog novo, mais dedicado à profissão, no wordpress. E aquilo traz comment moderation - que eu entretanto já retirei.

Básicamente significa que cada comentário vai para o email e só se o autor/owner disser que autoriza é que o comentário é colocado no blog.

Se porventura o autor/owner não consultar o email a tempo acho que se perde o comentário ...

Not good, digo eu ...
