Spam attacks

For some time now, I've been having to ban accounts that leave spam on my game's page, with links of dubious origin. Today I banned one and two more appeared. What can I do?

I am also having problems with this. For a while I got one such spam post per week, now it has increased to multiple per day. It should be easy for itch.io to filter such posts out, because the same post is made on the comments page of many games. If someone makes hundreds of posts in a very short time, all posts the same, they should be banned automatically, I'd say.

Please, itch, do something about this. If it continues like this I will have to close my comments section and I do not want to do that.

I've already had about 20 messages this week. It's getting annoying to delete them all.

Yeah, same. I get a few spam comments every day. I've got a discussion forum on one game that only had one or two spam threads, but the normal comment section on the other game receives a lot of spam.
