  I get a message when I try to post a comment to my own blog “sorry, but this comment cannot be posted”

  This has never happened before. Why now?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I too am having the same problem with my blog and some of my commenters are having the same problem and it started this afternoon around 1:30 pm ET and is still taking place with every other comment.

  Thanks for the bug reports, everyone!

  We’re implementing some extra security checks on comments, but that broke commenting for some users. We’ve rolled back the checks for now, while we work around these problems.
