Afraid this is super unclear, and would welcome an investigation by @zebateira and/or @jdiogopeixoto ...

Right now it looks like the Discourse comments plugin is automatically generating blog posts at https://discuss.ipfs.io/c/news/blog-entries/20/l/latest . Can we be certain we're not going to spam the forums when we cut the site over?

If I understand correctly, we can feel confident enough to close this?
