WP + Gravitar = Dumbest thing ever

Somewhere in all the updating and supposed upgrading WordPress has been doing over the course of who knows how long, my avatar was moved over to Gravitar.  And now when I comment on someone’s blog, even if it’s another WP blog, instead of linking back here to my blog, it just links to my icon over on Gravitar.com – ANNOYING!

Also, when you used to update profile info on WP, it was retro-active to any comments you had made before.  However, in trying to fix this stupid issue, I found out that that is no longer the case, and if I want to test if the “fix” is working, I have to go leave new comments somewhere and then test if the link-back is working.  And of course it doesn’t really say anywhere that the links you’re adding to your profile are actually going to be used as a link with your avatar.  UGH!

Sometimes I think WP, FB, and Google are all just trying to kill everyone by annoying them to death through their “improvements”  UGH!
