Not sure what is going on but seems like Akismet is getting tired of handling all the spams and has now given up. Hopefully, its for a short time. I manage a few other blogs and so far 30 minutes of my night has gone clicking “spam.” Anyone else experiencing this or are the spammers and bots in love with us?
Oh, yeah, it’s definitely a spamfest from those spammers right now. I’m throwing their ip addresses (94.102.60.15x) into the banned list in the Settings, but not sure that will hold it back for long. But you definitely aren’t alone. It’s widespread right now.
