Captcha is now on as default on new Blogger/Blogspot so a lot of bloggers don't even know they have it turned on or that it is annoying everyone (who does it not annoy?).
So here my friends is the world's easiest tutorial on how to turn word verification off on your Blogger/Blogspot Blog. Three Simple Steps:

2) Choose "No" under Show Word Verification
3) Save Settings
See? It was easy right? Barely qualifies as a tutorial :)
So make it easier for your readers to comment on your blog and please turn off word verification. Blogger already streams off spam comments for captcha really doesn't' do anything other than annoy us all. Pinky swear!

Captchas really are sooo irritating when you are tying to leave comments to people. Wish more people would turn the off.
Agree. Makes it nearly impossible when commenting from my iPhone.
Thank you - have done this on my Blog and Brassique's...they drive me up the wall! That's two Blogs anti-Captcha'd thanks to your Post! Now following you too : D x

This is a must, must, must do for all Blogger bloggers.
I love that you have done a post on this. but it is perfect, many don't realise that it is on. I didn't and was really quite embarrassed as I always go on about how awful it is lol. x
I figure it was time for me to stop saying I hate it and do something! Like you said most people don't even know they have it on so best to educate ;)
Thank you!!!! You're my hero :) will be shouting this from the rooftops xx
Feel free to shout, RT, link whatever you like! I think most people don't even know they have it on!

Hi thanks for this I hate them too,sometimes I spend ages trying to comment on a blog post and I have even gave up before,I hope next week you can tell me if it work cos I didn't know it was there :)
Thank yoooou! Didn't even know what Captcha was but it has stopped me commenting loads of times. Off to turn it off now x
Thanks for the comment! I have been meaning to fix that because I have had several people tell me they couldn't comment on my blog from an iphone. Thought maybe that's why? Not sure though, but I'm going to turn it off anyway, because you're right, it's annoying!
