How to post a new blog entry

OK, figured it out. It was set to subscribers only. I was wondering why, and switched it to all registered users, and immediately we got hit with a hundred or so spam blog entries. That, I guess, was why.

So I've switched it back; sorry. I have to find some way of blocking those blog spammers.

Edit: Okay. Perhaps require folks to answer an email or a captcha to activate their blog?

We use both extensively. They don't even slow spambots down these days.

Alright. Not a huge deal since I have my blogger.com blog to post to as well. It is just convenient to post my D&D-related stuff to EN World.

I figured it was something like that.

Hmm - I can't post blog entries either, and I'm sure I'm a subscriber.

Any thoughts, Morrus?
