You are looking at the handsome face of my most frequent blog commenter.
Anonymous.
I never see most of the comments Anonymous makes. Google does a good job of detecting Anonymous spam or nuisance comments.
I have 5 or 6, or is it 7, blogs. And one humongous website. All of which generate emails and comments. I have to moderate the comments rather than let them be auto-published, because the spam comments would make for a mess if they all got published..
Adding up all the posts on all the blogs I would guess the number is in the 8 or 9 thousand range. Any of which on any given day can generate a comment.
A person making a comment has the option of using their Google account name or OpenID, whatever that is or make up a fake name or be Anonymous.
Some commenters do not notice the message about the comments being moderated. A few times this has resulted in someone making a comment multiple times, with each effort slightly different and increasingly strident, because the commenter does not see their comment instantly appear.
If a commenter wants to make sure their comment gets read by the moderator don't make the comment as Anonymous.
If you don't have a Google account, simply make up a name. Those I always notice, particularly if the name is clever, like JD Mama Boy, or Corrupt River Rat, or Betsy Price Not Right.
Names like that.
