I keep getting upsetting and annoying comments

worst case, you can contact us at [email protected]. Send us an email
with the username of the person, the kind of comments that person makes,

I'm being bombarded with spam
Since we do not publish your email address, you must have displayed your email
address somewhere yourself.
In order to make sure you're not displaying your email address on your weblog,
be sure not to mention it in one of your entries. You should
also check email links, because email spammers have the technical ability to identify
email addresses which are contained in links. Be extra careful whenever you
enter your email address, because once a spammer has registered your address
there is nothing you can do about it.
