Comment system seems to be playing up

Sorry, but the comment system is acting weird... we will try to get it fixed as soon as possible.

It seems to be blocking things it should not and has posted most of the comments entered today dated... some time tomorrow!

Comments

Testing comments again.

Do any of those comments from tomorrow mention who wins tonight's ballgame? I could still get a bet down.

Comment test again.

veryretired,

LOL! You may be very retired, sir, but you remain as sharp as a nail.

Thanks, Thad, but I used to be sharp as a tack. Ah, the ravages of time...

Glad to see this isn't just degenerating into a pointless discussion.

But I might be sharper than both of you. 'Cause my music teacher was always telling me I was very sharp.

So, ah, anyone got the new Iron Maiden?

I've had the same thing happening on my blog comments since Monday/Tuesday night - when there was a spate of porn spam in my comments - I suspect somehow the two events are linked. Post-dated comments seemed to be about 6 hours in the future - so I wonder if this isn't some spam-attacker in Russia or somewhere like that.

This is pointless

Not yet they're not. You just wait and see.
