    The 12 messages that TOP deleted were posted on average, two per minute. I had the settings to allow 30 seconds between messages, so I increased that to 60 seconds.

    There would have been hundreds of messages if we had let them all through.

    The software is doing its job now.

    I don't think it is an ordinary spam event. I suspect cyber attack.
    My blog got hit, and I rank 3,141,592,654 among bloggers.
    In short, I have a readership of 1. Me.
    And 86 spammers.

    Oh, Mestral, it can't be that bad. I've even read yours a couple of times.
    Well, I am glad GR and Corgi enjoyed my post. I wonder if anyone noticed the number I used?

    But back on topic, it appears the attacks are abating. I have very few spams hitting my blog now.

    I have no idea why they came, or where they went. Just glad their gone.

    Anyone else notice the attack slack off?
    I don't mind being called far right.
    I have been right so far.

    Which attack? The spammers or Grammar and Corgi?

    One got through this morning, happened to be a couple minutes before I got up. I got lucky and 'spatched it before it posted.

    I turned off the bot notification, so I don't know if there are fewer attempts. But I know they aren't getting through like they were.

    True, in your case. Corgi can stand alone. BTW I like now Corgi's avatar has the best face forward.
