    The amount of Spam comments that I get is unbelievable. Yes, have seen and am following most of your tips on how to moderate comments, but really is there no way of somehow barring these trolls and spammers? It’s plain frustrating and de motivating. And most of these spams are from porn sites. Please help.

    I’m sorry you’re having trouble with spam comments. We’re currently seeing a massive uptick in spam comments coming into our system. I know it seems like a lot are getting through, but I promise, we’re blocking record numbers of spam right now.

    The best way to handle spam is to make sure you mark it as ‘spam’, don’t just delete it. Also, you don’t need to worry about anything in your Spam folder. It will be deleted automatically from our system in a few weeks and our spam blocker has already identified it.

    Here’s a handy graphic to explain how our system works:
