Why Comments Are Moderated

 


We don't really go for comments here, preferring the music to be listened to  We do enjoy people saying they like an album, but don't really look for people telling us how great our taste is. It is about then artists not us.

Comments are moderated, but not for us to decide what people can say. There has always been the odd problem with Spam. Lately, the spam has got far worse. One spammer picks an old review and attempts to spam on that post continually. The latest saw them under the name Akram or Anonymous try to post the same spam 28 times in one day and they are still at it today. All on the same review. When I put the post in draft for a bit, they turned their attention to a different one.

It also gets a bit sinister. One spammer posts "die die die" on random posts regularly. Some are hilarious, mistaking the context of the post title. Tips for Dry Stone Walling, getting rich quick. The Custard Review brought in comments about buying Curtains.

It is getting tiresome deleting all this nonsense. So Comments may be switched off for a while if this continues.
