(The Weekly Vice) - Beginning today, The Weekly Vice will activate comment moderation for this site.
This means there will be a slight delay before your posted comments will appear on the site.
This change was made because we have a spammer (Men's Health Magazine) who seems intent on turning this site into an advertising campaign for whatever blog he's working on at the moment.
Just to be clear. We do not recommend, support or encourage any reader to visit his various blogs.
And as to the author of Men's Health, Wedding Jewelry and the multiple other blogs you continuously advertise here - you are not wanted here.
I would also like to update readers on a bug fix that I've been agonizing over for the past few weeks.
About three weeks ago, we encountered a problem with our text which caused each line of text to be placed directly atop the other. This made each paragraph of text rather ugly and difficult to read.
After researching the issue, I've finally found the problem and have corrected the issue. As you can see, our text is back to it's original format, which I know many of you will be glad to see.
Thank you for your patience! =D
Thank You!

Woohoo! I hadn't noticed any spam but as a reader, I wanted to say THANKS! It's always frustrating to see spam in comments and it causes readers to lose interest. TheWeeklyVice is a daily read for me and others. Your fans appreciate the extra effort.
Thanks Danny! It was getting pretty annoying when every comment on the recent comment section was from mens health mag or wedding jewelery. Their comments never made any sense or had anything to do with the story.
I too am very much sick of the spammer. We have all told him to post relevant comments, but he doesn't want to put that much effort into whatever he is advertising, so I'm glad he is going to be weeded out. It will stop some of the irrelevant anons as well.
As for the text, call me crazy, but I never even noticed it. Maybe it's because I use Firefox (or maybe it's because I just don't pay enough attention to detail). Either way, you do an awesome job. Thank you!
So long Wedding Jewelry. So long Men's Health Magazine we will miss your vain attempts at english along with your unpaid solicitation.
Wait a minute... could I be next?
LOL I agree Ida... he will be missed. Poor little guy. I wonder if it ever pays off for people like that. I hate that TWV crew has to sift through every comment now. It will increase your work load quite a bit. Thanks to Danny and his writers for producing a great site.
I never noticed it either. That's awesome. Another reason why this blog is the best. Love your hard work Danny! (and the rest of the team!)
thank you
Hows the dude going to practice his English now?
