DIAF, spammers
Jan. 10th, 2023 09:25 amHaving mentioned in a recent discussion that I don't have a big problem with spam here, I'm now experiencing a big flood of it. Anon comments remain screened and I may have to put in a captcha or turn them off altogether if the problem continues.
If I accidentally delete your comment or fail to unscreen it, my apologies. Please help me out by making it as obvious as possible that your comment is a helpful comment from a human. Sign your comment in some way (it's fine to use a random nonsense ident, I don't want to breach anyone's privacy, but some kind of signature please). Please write mostly in English if you can. And please respond to the ongoing discussion in a meaningful way; when I'm trying to pull real comments out of a sewer of spam, if something seems a bit weird or pointlessly mean or something I'm less likely to be able to give the benefit of the doubt. And if you have a question, please give some indication of what you're curious about / what is confusing you; just posting "?" to a post with several different sub-sections isn't really possible to respond to.
Cheers!

ETA Captchas now switched on for anon comments, this was getting unbearable. Apologies if this makes it harder for real people to comment here
