Comment on Proportional Representation : The Single Transferable Vote by David.

All your recent comments were marked as SPAM by WordPress. Maybe you’ve had some comments on another WordPress site marked as SPAM by the owner and Akismet (the WordPress plugin that automates SPAM removal) now recognises your email address as a SPAMMER.

Not saying you are a SPAMMER, I didn’t see anything wrong with your comments so pulled them out the SPAM folder and approved them. Akismet can also make mistakes.

If you find this happens a lot on other WordPress sites I’d change the email address you use for commenting. The email address isn’t used on a site like this anyway, it’s only important if you have to register to comment (fake email addresses work here :-)).

If your comments don’t show up right away as long as they aren’t SPAM I’ll recover them as I check the SPAM folder several times a day.
