Commenting problems at 3 Quarks Daily

Hello,

ScreenHunter_105 Feb. 15 11.49For the last few days, many legitimate comments are being mistakenly caught as spam by Typepad's automated filter and being quarantined in a spam folder. I have written to Typepad about this and they have replied saying:

We're moving to a new anti-spam service and in the process, you may see some issues with the current anti-spam features. We're aware of those issues and we're working as quickly as possible to get everything running smoothly. We apologize for any inconvenience in the meantime.

In the meantime, I will be checking the spam folder as often as I can and publishing any legitimate comments I find there. So, if you leave a comment and don't see it appear immediately, please be patient. I will get to it eventually.

Sorry about this and thanks for your patience.

Yours,

Abbas

Ah. . .makes more sense now. I thought I had accidentally done something dickish and been banned without knowing it.

I would like to take this moment to thank Abbas and the 3QD crew for all of the friggin hard work they put into this site. These guys make it seem so easy but every once in a while you get a little glimpse into the nuts and bolts of the place and are reminded of just how hard it is to put together a site of this quality.

Thanks 3QD!
Dan

OK, ass-kissing session is over. Let's get back to arguing about Hitchens or something ;)
