Is AO3 looking into means to halt the recent flood of spam comments? All I see on the site is "here's how to turn off anonymous comments" (which is a significant portion of the legitimate comments I get), but nothing about whether you're trying to directly address the problem on your end.
ETA: also, it would be nice if marking a spam comment as such would delete it automatically, instead of shunting me to the story's main page so I have to spend even more time going back to delete it.
Thanks for asking. Right now, the best solution is reporting the spam comment by comment, unfortunately. I am sorry I don't have a better answer for you.
