If your comment went AWOL within the last 12 hours
As you all have noticed, sometimes the Askimet spam blocker eats your comments. What you may not know is that, for reasons that are entirely unclear to me, they can get channeled into two separate areas: comment moderation or spam. I check both routinely, and make sure to release from captivity any comments that aren’t spam. Last night, however, I was hit by a spammer that sent out more than 300 spams. Askimet caught them all and properly channeled them into its spam function. With so many of them, I did not first review them to make sure that one of your comments hadn’t mistakenly been fed into that trap.
What this means is that, if you posted a comment in the last 12 hours and it hasn’t shown up, assume that it got caught up in my last mass spam delete. Sorry.
