ThePolitic.com Outage - Apologies

September 1, 2006 · By Greg Farries

Sorry about the outage yesterday, comment spammers where hammering the server ThePolitic.com resides on, and evasive action had to be taken. FYI, SpamKarma is a great spam plugin, but it can’t handle a large scale comment spam attack.

Everything is back to normal and posting may resume!

    Is this also why my posts were removed from this website?

    Could be, which comment thread did they disappear from?

    Ok, I’ve doubled checked, and this appears to be related to the outage yesterday. I will try my best to restore those comments, however, they may be lost forever. Feel free to return to those threads and continue the discussions.

    Sorry again,
