WordPress glitches
Have any of you WordPress habitués ever gotten the error message, “You are posting comments too quickly. Slow down.” ?
I have tried posting comments on several WP blogs today and that very strange error message came up each time.
It’s not like I’m rapidly firing off comments left and right, blazing away at the computer keyboard til smoke rises from it, my eyes popping out of my skull as I frantically dash off fevered messages to everyone’s WordPress blog.
And the admonition “Slow down.” At least they could say “Please”!
It all sounds so cold.

Its those lithe and nimble harpist fingers dancing over the keyboard of the computer while the rest of us are huntin’ and peckin’.
(No, I’ve not had that message as yet.)

No, but I’m slow on the comments because I’m always trying to find something witty to say!

Oh, that’s me, by the way.

I get that message all the time and it does seem pretty “in your face”. The first time I got it, I was quite taken aback. I type pretty quickly and like to respond to multiple posts. I don’t like to ignore things that people have taken the time to write, so I generally try to check out all the posts that I’ve missed since the last time I visited.
Cameron, I sent an invitation to your e-mail. Did you get it?

no i have never seen that
but then again my lousy laptop goes very slowly so I doubt I can get up to that sort of speed.

A truly strange message indeed. I’m going to take it that you are quick, and in an efficient sort of way.
Perhaps WordPress will be nicer to you in the future. I know they have recently changed the dashboard/user interface on it recently. It’s taking some getting used to. Perhaps there is a glitch with the migration?

Good thing they don’t send that message to bloggers who blog too quickly! (Like yours truly.)

Very strange…I’m not a WP’er, but the message is strange nonetheless.
I completely visualized you typing away at your computer with smoke coming out of your ears. LOL

That’s funny! No, it hasn’t happened to me yet, but now I have something to aim for. ^_^ How’s Rupert Kitty?
