🐛 Bug Fix: Spam Comments Hidden! A few brand-new throwaway accounts had been spamming the comments on a couple of older Weekend Quests posts — same paragraph pasted dozens of times in a row. The accounts have been frozen, and all 179 of their visible comments are now hidden so you don't have to scroll past them anymore.
🔧 Technical: Public Comments Are Rate-Limited Now. News and changelog comments now have the same anti-spam protections as the shoutbox: a short cooldown between posts, a 24-hour wait for brand-new accounts, and no link-posting in your first week. Real users won't notice a thing — but a bot trying to paste the same comment 50 times in 10 seconds (yes, that happened) will get cut off after the first one.
such an annoying thing to happen but thank you for getting it taken care of! appreciate it!
nice work 🦋🦋
Speaking of which... Will we ever have the option to delete/edit our own comments? That'd be super!
