    Please contact (email visible only to moderators and staff) from the email address associated with your WordPress.com account and include a link to the gravatar account in question. Please also make sure that you are clear that it is the link in their gravatar account which is the problem, not the gravatar itself. I do not have any notion how long it will take before your email is addressed.

    Meantime many of us have simply turned off the Likes from displaying on our sites. This won’t prevent people from liking the post or page, but they won’t have the gratification of having their gravatar displayed.

    @karim – “share my chick mail” without the spaces, as one word.

    Again, it’s not their gravatar, but the site in their gravatar profile, which shows up as a thumbnail on gravatar.

    Thanks for the report. The follower has been removed and their Gravatar profile blocked.

    Please let us know if you need any further assistance!

    Thanks Karim. It would be great if the “report abuse” link was returned on gravatars.
