Word comes from Portland, Oregon, that spammers hate comic creators. Steve Lieber, take it away:
When our studio changed its name from Mercury to Periscope, I thought we were sort of stuck with our old blog URL. Today I was happy to stumble upon a button in the blogspot dashboard that enables you to move your content to a new blogspot URL, (subject to availability) and I used it. Bang! All of our content was now available at http://periscopestudio.blogspot.com. It didn’t offer any sort of warning, so I assumed that the mercurystudio.blogspot.com address would keep the old content.
Hoo boy, no. Within minutes a spammer took possession of the URL and pasted viagra and porn ads into a google cache of our site’s template. I’ve written blogspot’s support, but their help forum is full of people complaining about never getting any reply from blogspot support, and I’m not expecting much help there. In the meantime, we’re writing to you, our friends in comics, asking you to change your Mercury Studio links to this: http://periscopestudio.blogspot.com.
