Probably coz its still new, but I hope the spam doesn't increase with the exposure :/ I've also pondered that: who takes the time to write spam? And who do they think will actually click their links, and be interested in whatever they advertise? If we were looking for tablets, cheap watches or whatever else they sell we would've googled it, and not waited until someone left a comment with an obscure link leading to redirecting sites...which eventually led to the "bargain of a lifetime"?

I get around 300 a day on there.... thankfully most are blocked before they see the light of day, but there is that one leaker every so often....

I think it has to do with the fact kids are out of school for the summer and have nothing better to do. Most of the spam comments don't even point to a URL. They just say something unrelated to the post. I keep marking them all as spam-and it really doesn't help. I’ve been hit a lot lately by spammers.
