Comments don’t post if HTML is in comment?? WTF
-
I’ve tried to support other blogs by commenting, then adding an html code (“visit our site” link) so that we can have some reciprocity. But all of a sudden (like a week ago) my comments stopped registering, and now they don’t even show up! What’s good with that? HELP please.

Comments that lack any real and actual response to posts like the opportunistic ones you are posting to get others to visit your own site are considered to be COMMENT SPAM. Any comment that is posted to my blogs that contains a “visit our site” link in it like you describe I send immediately to the Akismet spam filter. My guess is that the reason the spammy comments you are leaving are not appearing on blog s is because they are being detected as COMMENT SPAM and sent to the Akismet spam filter.

but i’m leaving real comments, not dummy ones. I’m making insightful commentary. but i do see your point.

Also there is no reason to leave “Visit Our Site” because your name is linked
to your site. so most likely you have been marked as spam because the blog admin
perceived it as a spam comment. -
If I’m unsure about a comment posted at my blog, I’m reluctant to delete it as spam, because that can create posting problems for a legitimate visitor. In such cases I’ll just edit the comment to remove the links, including the one in the commenter’s name. I’ve never yet had such a person return to ask what happened. I guess they were spam after all.

I think someone can pretty much tell when it’s authentic or spam. I’m kinda like you sensuous, take it case-by-case. But, it’s just not a useful thing to do, cuz enough frown upon it that you’ll end up in Askimet. But, if I were you great8, I’d wait contact Askimet, to see if you’re designated as spam.
