Word verification

While posting a comment on a blog I have to go through word verification for three times as the word that appears on screen was not clearly written and was jumbled too much that I can’t interpret it correctly.

Do you think word verification before posting a comment is mere wastage of time or protection from spam?

    and I haev the same problem as you said typing it wrong , i make so many mistakes as such

  5. It helps against spam and against comments that may be a bit fast ...

  6. Yes, I think it is boring to decipher the letters and write. But if it protects spam, then it is good, I feel. Does it protect?
