I finally made took some action on a decision I made a long time ago. I needed to move my blog to a new wordpress theme. I was having trouble doing so because I could not update my server with the latest wordpress and database versions.
I just had to manually enter all my posts into this new site location (I moved the domain to a new server and moved the location of the blog within the domain). A pain but it was necassary to just get it done.
The hope is the fresh start will do me, and you, well. Now I can work with comments again where before I was getting hammered by spam so bad I had to shut them off. The newer tools available for handling such problems can better deal with such things.
Well…..here we go…..
