As far as word...I agree with two of your peeves :)<br /><br />As far as word verification ... even if you aren't getting lots of "real" visitors, a blog without verification (eve if it has moderation) can QUICKLY be taken over. <br /><br />I was supposed to leave you love yesterday for Happy Saturday Sharefest but my router crashed and I am just now getting back!! So sorry I wasnt able to do it yesterday. I hope you forgive me :DPriscilla - The Wheelchair Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08224211748863436963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602092517427512744.post-44210615269236305952009-07-16T10:18:18.160-07:002009-07-16T10:18:18.160-07:00I can't tell you how relieved I am to read wha...I can't tell you how relieved I am to read what you wrote about awards and tags. I used to really love them and I certainly appreciate the ones I get but it becomes overwhelming and then I have a hard time deciding who to pass the award/tag on to. I usually just thank the person for the award and leave it at that. <br /><br />I hate the word verification too. Or the blogs that take forever to upload because they have so many things on their site!!Helenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743718606624231459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602092517427512744.post-47738829077598226252009-07-14T11:46:25.487-07:002009-07-14T11:46:25.487-07:00I'm sorry.

I happen to feel like Thom (above) who said "I love awards and if people take the time to give it to someone, as we all know posts just don't happen in seconds, I can at least be grateful enough to accept and acknowledge it." Thanks, Thom. I couldn't have said it better.<br /><br />My biggest pet peeve is blogs that don't have "email follow up comments to...". I probably comment on a dozen or more of those a day, and if I don't receive an email telling me of follow ups, there is no way I can remember.<br /><br />I'm with you on the music and the word verification.Annie*s Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772261218172078099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602092517427512744.post-14296759522561216832009-07-11T19:21:47.598-07:002009-07-11T19:21:47.598-07:00I think the awards are kind of cool. Yes, there...I think the awards are kind of cool. Yes, there's a networking component, but the two times I've gotten one it has really made my day.<br /><br />I turned off my word verification because people let me know that it wasn't loading properly. Even though I haven't gotten any disturbing comments yet, I've got moderation on just so I'd be the first to see it if there were. I would at some point like to turn it off to encourage more dialogue btwn commentors.<br /><br />The sound on my computer is usually off, so the music isn't really an issue.<br /><br />I do have a big pet peeve with people who show only the first few lines in their RSS feeds, forcing you to click to their site. Kind of defeats the point and is just rude. I've only kept one sub that does that, and I hardly ever click thru to read it.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02586852341184678944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1602092517427512744.post-60201930280841725292009-07-10T17:26:21.211-07:002009-07-10T17:26:21.211-07:00we have so many of the same pet peeves I don't...we have so many of the same pet peeves I don't like the awards either, at first I did but now I don't.

The others. I love awards and if people take the time to give it to someone, as we all know posts just don't happen in seconds, I can at least be grateful enough to accept and acknowledge it. As for the music, on most blogs I've seen, I see a pause switch. Just click it LOL. My pet peeve however, is comments. I wish there was a better way to keep up with them. When I make a comment I like to see if it got a response to see if I want to respond again. As it is not it's all manual and no I'm not putting them in my reader...it would be humongously long LOL. Thanks for stopping by my playground.

I do have scripts blocked, but I try to unblock on those pages and it doesn't work. It's frustrating because I don't want to have to email the people to comment.
