  • You may have a space or extra blank line in your spam blacklist. I’m not sure exactly what’s wrong, but I do recall someone had a similar problem quite a while ago.

    is there no one who can help?

    You didn’t mention what spam related plugins you’re running? Might be helpful.

    i’m not running any spam related plugins

    Seems odd. Are they being marked as Spam or simply being held for moderation?

    What’s in the Comment Moderation fields?

    they’re getting marked as spam. hold for moderation says 0. the only reason i knew they were there is because i went to the database and found them there. i was able to change them in the database from ‘spam’ to ‘0’ and then they showed up in the moderation.
