RSS Feed: We’re working on it

January 9, 2018 by Tim

This past week a plug-in we were working with became compromised, and allowed spam posts to be made via a blog category we don’t use for anything on this site. The posts appeared nowhere except for propogating to the RSS feed.

I apologize for the spam posts you’ve received this past week. We are aware of the issue, and are actively taking measures to prevent it.

That’s funny. I have been skimming them and waiting for the payoff. It was quite the buildup to this joke!

So, you weren’t reposting tweets from the white house? I knew they seemed a little to coherent.

All hail the mighty WordPress! Making it easier to disseminate content and propagate spam and viruses since 2003!

Now that you’ve gotten this viral marketing, you need to tie it into the Red Ring storyline.

I never noticed. But then I follow many comics via RSS (including GPF) and got into the habit of ignoring all updates that was not obviously a comic.

Ah, so that’s what those are. I was wondering why you kept writing so many blogs and deleting them.
