We may as well make it worth you time so please include your preferred anchor text and a short description of your site.
If your blog is DoFollow using CommentLuv or KeywordLuv and you welcome new commentators who are link builders please so indicate to be added to our lists.

There were so many more bloggers complaining about being flagged as spammers that we gave up listed them on this page and developed an Akismet alternative instead. I published it now so that when other posts are published tomorrow morning bloggers will be able to comment in this post too.

Often it’s not the IP address, it’s your email or URL.
If your message is blocked, I would use a different and/or URL and tell the owner of the blog in your comment to get rid of askimet, because it is unreliable.
If he/she has comment luv. Add your URL, let comment luv find your last post, remove the URL and publish. The comment luv link won’t be blocked by askimet.
