Some people were reporting problems with comments being posted. I thought it was maybe just people weren’t approving them (comments go through a moderation queue that the owner of the blog has to approve), but that apparently wasn’t the case. After some frustrating time trying to figure it out, I discovered that there was a weird error going on with our spam captcha system (thing that keeps the spammers away).
I guess it wasn’t working right and comments were disappearing into oblivion. I’m really sorry if anyone was having trouble with this, and I’ll see if I can find these rogue comments somewhere but I’m not sure if it’s possible. Everything seems to be working now so comment posting is back to normal.
Once again, sorry, and thanks for using SquidTop.
Also, we have a support email address now, so if you’re having trouble with something on the site and need help shoot an email to help*at*squidtop.com (remove *at* with @).

Well, I’ll try it out
I guess if this gets posted, it’s fixed.

It’s time for a search function or something. There was one blogpost here I really really wanted to comment on - but how am I going to find it?

Thanks for the search option. That was quicker than quick
