Readers may have noticed the last couple of days a number of spam comments appearing on the posts here at San Diego Rostra.  These are auto-generated spams, typically with links to advertising.  We are removing them as quickly as we can, and working on a permanent fix.  Please bear with us as we work out some of the glitches.  Thanks for your patience and support.  Several new bloggers are coming on board and we are excited about the venue and forum San Diego Rostra is providing the San Diego community.

  1. Job well done, and thank you !

    I have “closed” comments on some of my older posts
    (which were targeted by spammers) and this has been
    effective, shutting down that avenue to them.

    Thanks, Jim.

    Bloggers and readers: Most of the spams have been coming from the same source, so they have now been “blacklisted,” which should help clear up the problem. This is being monitored closely. The hope is that we aren’t forced into having legitimate comments wait for approval by admin….as I have other things to do!

    Thanks.
