  Since about two days ago, comments land in our spam folders even though we visit each other’s sites almost daily and have been for some time without this happening. WP is probably having a burp but how can it be sorted out please?

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

  Hi there!

  You might be more suitable to contact the Akismet team. They’ll help further since they help your site with spam.

  I’ll tag this as Modlook, if staff wants to close this thread, or has anything else to say — and to help further as well.

  Thanks!
  Alisson

  Hi there!

  Sorry If I am interrupting everything — but you guys aren’t the only ones seeing this.

  I’ve seen this happening a lot lately, and seen many topics on the public forums. Please read this article, as it will explain how to get further in contacting someone to resolve this.

  Also — If you have a site with a paid upgrade, you can get access to Live chat support so we don’t keep seeing a lot of posts about spam and weird emails. This may be an issue, and spammers always look for ways to make users follow back.

  Sorry for any interrupting — but I wanted to make this statement.

  Thanks!
  Alisson

  Hi there,

  Do you mean your comments are being marked as spam on someone else’s site, or other people’s comments are being marked as spam on your site?

  Please provide specifics regarding the sites and usernames involved, and we can take a look.

  Who exactly are you interrupting? You are the only person who have replied to this thread thus far.

  If you are more than one person using the same WordPress.com account, please do not do that. WordPress.com username accounts are intended to be used by only one individual. If you are more than one person volunteering in the forums, please create separate accounts for each person.

  @kokkieh — I tagged it as Modlook, and replied again — so I didn’t want to do that.

  And I won’t be changing my username anytime soon. I was changing it because I didn’t like the way it sounded but I won’t be changing my username again.
