spam posts staring with "parajumpers outlet"

I use Feedly to read RSS feeds from F:AT, and for a few weeks at least I have been getting many spam posts, mostly with titles starting with "parajumpers outlet". Does anyone else get this?

Exact same situation with me (using Feedly as well).

I suspect that the spam posts are being posted as blog entries and show up in the RSS feed before the admins get a chance to delete them?

Thank you Ubarose for the quick reply. Feedly should be just like any other RSS feed reader. It seems the RSS feed is being spammed. That is strange indeed since you said articles coming through the RSS feed need prior approval by admins. Can it be that spam articles go straight to RSS feed, and admins are actually deleting them afterwards after they have already gone out? It is strange that a spammer is able to create spam articles in the first place. I imagine an article writer would need ID and password to be able to publish anything. Can it be due to features like blogging by SMS / mobile phone or other channels that such spam is getting through?

Hecose... what she said is that the feed you have is for all items, including blogs. Blogs potentially CAN be spammed. There are OTHER feeds F:AT provides that could solve your problem by only putting articles or news on them, which can't be spammed.

Ah I see. Thank you Gary. I do like the blogs, so skipping them won't work for me. Anyhow thank you for clarifying. I understand better now.

Can someone explain to me in simple terms, as if you were explaining to a mentally disabled child, what an RSS feed is and why I would want one.

and what if I need to know where the closest parajumpers factory outlet is?

The village I grew up in was close to the Iron Curtain so we used to have the occasional parajumper asking for directions to "Plzeň?"

After the Cold War ended, they stopped coming though, so I assume the parajumpers factories were moved to China like most everything else.
