OK, I've got update.. and it is sad ☹️. 

I don't know what is happening, but now about 95% of comments from normal ppl just stuck in pending + they appear there only in 5-6 hours after ppl post them. So even checking every hour I'm able to see it in pending posts much later. And it causes troubles, because ppl try to post again or think they are not wanted here. 

On the other hand spam with links goes straight to the game's main post comments. And nothing stops them. 

Just want to ask wtf is going on?

Can we just have the button to send on pending for moderation all comments on our game page?

Well. It is not exactly the time of the year for working, unless you are a criminal.

And of course, Itch's system is not all that good in catching the spammers. This is unfair, of course. We only see the spammers the system did not catch. But the spammers just try again and again and again and again and again and and agian and again and again and again and again, till they manage it.

There was a typo in there. Did you all catch it first time...

I sure hope they come up with some genius low cost idea to fix the situation. They once managed to break a certain type of scam. That particular scam was never seen again, but those criminals did not stop working, they just used other methods to try and scam and hack people. Short of sending some police to take away their toys, nothing is gonna help there, I fear. I guess it is one of those "call centers" in certain places of the world. I have seen them in documentations. They professionally scam people all over the world and probably hack Itch as a side gig.
