Overzealous wordpress spam blocking

It all started with a comment made on Cerno's blog. Which didn't appear. Wrote it again. Still no luck. Moved on. Twas the same with Kanabona. Then again with Mia. Java Jones was to be next. Cerno and Mia later resurrected the comments. But it sure was uncomfortable to sit in the dark and wonder whether the last minutes of the already wasted life were spent in vain.

Was really pissed when a long comment written for Lirneasia wasn't published. Same happened with indi.ca. It's unfair to ask these huge traffic generating sites to check the spam box everyday, but on the other hand a lot of comments by people like RD, Jack Point, and Janusis have been blocked by wordpress as well. Kind of glad that I'm not the only criminal around here...

Not much of a computer geek but perhaps something like this would work, instead of spam blockers?

I could just stick with commenting on blogger blogs, or change my email and name and go on happily commenting for another two weeks before being blocked again or I can grab on to a great chance of ShuttingTFU. All seems to be very healthy options at this stage.
