When Spam Attacks
January 19th, 2010 | filed in: Site

A few weeks ago comments were disabled in the gallery due to a high volume of spam being posted as comments where it was just impossible to keep up with them. At one point when I went to look through them, there were over 500 spam comments.

Over the past few days, I’ve been getting notified about a large amount of pending comments here on the main section of the site. All of them have been spam. I’ve been marking them as such so they don’t get posted.

With all of this spam trying to be posted to the site, we’re working on finding new ways to combat it without making it necessary for all comments to be pre-approved. For now, however, the comments on the main site will remain so – as it’s been since the opening of the site – and comments will remain disabled in the gallery.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
