    My site, http://football-fan-site.com is getting massive spam in the comments under 1 certain article (about Chris Johnson). To the right of the comment, on my "administration" area, it says, "in response to" then the article is not posted, but the pic that I had of Chris Johnson. So I removed the picture hoping that the spam would stop - but it has not. I am getting about 20 comments per day from a drug ad for "tramerol" or something like that. The comment is really, really long and mostly html code. I am going through and clicking the "spam" button, but that does not stop it. Any suggestions to help stop this would be greatly appreciated. (If there is a way to report/get in trouble the person doing this, that would be great, too) Thanks.

    I just figured it out. So - for those who don't know, go to Settings>Discussion then to bottom of page to Comment Moderation where you can blacklist words, etc. Hopefully this will help. If not - I'll be back.
