Thanks.

Only the No Ads upgrade will give you control

The ad is very graphic and could easily offend some of my Mommy readers. I'm not an over-sensitive Mom and even I was a bit shocked to see it. If these are the types of ads that will be appearing, I will have to stop participating in Word Ads so I don't lose readers.

I do check my spam folder, so I saw them, but it was nice to see that they simply vanished after the person submitted them. It does work to do that -- much as I hate blocking an I.P. address, since it might be rotated to someone else.

Don't know if it would work - sorry about the troll

Someone has posted two offensive (violent) comments to my page. I have not approved them, of course, but I wonder if there is some way I can report this to WordPress so he can be blocked from posting to WordPress at all in the future.

It's just that you came in with "Has anyone else seen this?" when a quick look at the front page at the time would have shown you at least two other threads on the topic.

We don't mind handholding but that was a bit much....

Almost sad when your spam is greater than your hit's LOL

Tonight I crossed 15,200 spam messages blocked. 20 got through to my regular comment queue over the last 48 hours which I marked as spam as well, and they were deleted. I just asked the question here because I saw a marked spike in the number of spam messages making it into my account, I wasn't complaining. This spike happened a while back then there was a lul in garbage mail coming through, it just seems that some drug companies are sending out oodles of spam for every pill on the market. And as of late, I have been getting traffic from gratuitous porn sites sending me massive links to "get hooked up!" I just found the push of spam recently peculiarly heavy. I keep my blog 'clean' of suspect links in my blog list, but it seems that straight heavy porn sites are infiltrating and linking my blog onto theirs which has never happened before since I joined WP.

I'm going to forward this to mark in support as well.

Sorry if I was a bother, I did not mean to be. My apologies.

Jeremy

I wonder if any one else has these problems.

I politely ask if you dropped akismet into the search bar at the head of the forums and taken a look? Gotta admit that you're making life hard on the volenteers here in the forums if you're not doing that.

You are marking the spam that has gotten through as spam, right? That way the system learns what is spam and what isn't.

Over the last 2 weeks I have cleared upwards of almost 3,000 messages from drug companies and some serious violent sites that have been linking to my blog. My akismet is sitting over 15,000 spam messages cleared. The past week I've been seeing over 300 messages a day or more come through my spam filter, and now they are starting to get into the regular comment queue.

Spam traffic coming through the main filter has spiked over the last week. I wonder if any one else has these problems. I haven't looked at the graph as of late.

Just some thoughts ...

Cheerio
Jeremy
