We Love Type, Not Spam
We recently have been plagued by comment spam that manages to elude our spam filters. The sad high point was yesterday, when in a matter of minutes over 80 spam comments flooded The FontFeed. While we’re working on an effective solution, this has steeled me in my resolve to continue marking all suspicious comments as spam, and by extension comments that do not contribute anything substantial to the discussion. If you feel a comment of yours was undeservedly removed please drop me a line.
