Spam inundation may result in lost posts
|
|
<p>The amount of bot-spam being posted to this blog has gone up by an order of magnitude in the last week. </p>

<p>I wouldn’t bother my readers about this, except that if one of your posts happens to trigger the spam filter, the odds that I will notice and rescue it have dropped significantly. It’s easier to notice the ham in a dozen putative items of spam, which was the typical length of queue last week, than when the queue is 217 items long as it was just now.</p>

<p>This probably means akismet, the WordPress shared spamtrap that I use, needs some tuning. But I don’t know when or even if that problem will be fixed. Apologies for any inconvenience.</p>
