Hi Nikos,

Unfortunately I know of no way to disable or moderate savannah news ("forum") comments.  Perhaps someone will correct me if I'm wrong about that. There is no time for actual new feature development for the foreseeable future :(.

I deleted these two users and all their comments (11).

Savannah admins: for the record, I followed Sylvain's notes at http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/SavaneTasks --
UPDATE user SET status='S' WHERE user_id='81476';
DELETE FROM forum WHERE posted_by = 81476;
Each had posted 11 spams.  Anyone up for logging into the internal subhost could do this in the future.

I poked around at a couple of the other dbs but evidently they only posted to the forums.

There are savanah users that submit spam to news items as comments [0]. Is there any way to disable comments or to moderate them?

[0]. https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=6880
