This blog has persistently been troubled by a peculiarly nasty form of spamming: people who post off-topic "comments" advertising "herbal breast enlargement," "penis enlargement," "propecia," "vioxx litigation," "texas hold'em," etc. etc. ad nauseam. Spammers are not just the lowest form of human life -- actually they are a subhuman species!
Who on earth is going to read the long-dead back pages of an obscure weblog, seeking a bigger shlong, a shyster lawyer, a new head of hair, or a poker game? I guess these parasites get paid per hundred links posted, no matter WHERE! I only hope that those who pay them check up on some of the links, because ON THIS WEBLOG they'll find that they didn't get what they paid for, or not for very long.
My blog software notifies me by e-mail whenever a comment or a "trackback ping" is posted on my blog. One day I got three hundred such e-mails and spent several hours going back through the blog deleting them and barring further comments and pings.
We all lose freedom and opportunities when bloggers are forced by these lice to close their blog pages to comments and links. Until the online community discovers an effective way of dealing with spammers of all shapes, forms and sizes, life on the Internet will be less enjoyable and fulfilling than it might otherwise be.
NOTICE TO SPAMMERS AND OTHER INTERNET LICE: GO SOMEWHERE ELSE -- YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME HERE. UNTIL YOU ALL F--- OFF AND DIE, THE POLICY IS "NO COMMENTS AND NO PINGS ALLOWED"!!! AND MAY YOUR HERBALLY ENLARGED BREASTS, PENISES, TOUPEES AND POKER HANDS CONTRACT NECROTISING FASCIITIS AND DROP OFF BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES!
I'll keep the "comments" function on this page OPEN for a week or so, just for fun. (Spam-comments will be deleted daily, though.)
Posted by jjeffrey at May 11, 2005 10:10 PMThank you for this page: I cannot agree with you more. It is sad when we try to help the true people who wish information and learning.
Keep up the good work.
Sorry you get these spammers. I do to and they are real scumbag of the week posters.
Best of luck to you and your dogs,
Jo Anna
