I saw that Grau at Frizzen Sparks had posted how he got several thousand spam comments today, so I thought I’d see how I was doing – only a couple hundred over the past couple days, but not so bad.<\/p>\n
The one thing that has bothered me about Spam Karma is that even if a comment isn’t listed on the post, it would show up in the “Recent Comments” area in the right menu until it was purged. The thing I noticed tonight is that they have figured out how to hack WP’s comment listings.<\/p>\n
