Wordpress deleting comments?

Posted by Ray @ 1:11 pm

Hmm, something weird is going on. Two comments posted by one of our readers got nuked overnight. Since neither Zeng or I touched them, it can only be either a bug in wordpress, or someone’s gotten a hold of our password, or I woke up in the middle of the night in a sleepwalking fit and deleted comments. I am examining the databases to see if everything’s okay.

In the meantime, I’ve changed the password to something abominable. Not that the old one wasn’t, but still. My apologies to any reader whose comments appear to have disappeared - rest assured we don’t censor anything on SB without excellent reason, like gahmen intervention, and even then I’d tell you.

Update: it’s just my spam filter working in some weird delayed fashion. Apparently if a user posts multiple comments over a short period of time he or she gets penalized. I’ve made the rules a bit more lax.
