Comment on Spam protection measures

    As someone who got slammed with all my works getting spammed I really appreciate this. I already moderate the comments on my works because I will not allow hate or such in the comment section. However I do like the option to filter out guest comments, I had to do this to one of my works recently got a really pushy reader. I don't mind it being the default and I appreciate the steps being taken to ensure our safety and ease of use. Thank you so much for taking such a lovely approach to this.

        I tried various methods, mentioning in the notes that I do have things to do but I always post when I say I am going to. Then I answered them directly then I just deleted and it was sucking my enjoyment and making me angry so I banned guest comments like a day before the site wide ban came about. I'm not planning on opening it back up again but I will be allowing guest comments until someone gets rude and pushy again.

            Honestly I concur, it's not generally worth the stress of spam and/or harassment.
