Some recent blogspammers.

This is why I may have to reintroduce verification, captchas, whatever.

"I really love your website.. Excellent colors & theme. Did you create this amazing site yourself? Please reply back as I’m trying to create my own personal website and want to learn where you got this from or what the theme is named. Appreciate it!"

"Oh my goodness! Impressive article dude! Thanks, However I am going through difficulties with your RSS. I don’t know the reason why I am unable to subscribe to it. Is there anybody getting similar RSS problems? Anyone who knows the answer can you kindly respond? Thanx!! 

"When I originally left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I recieve 4 emails with the same comment. There has to be a means you can remove me from that service? Thank you!"

"Aw, this was a really nice post. Finding the time and actual effort to produce a very good article… but what can I say… I put things off a lot and never manage to get anything done."

"It’s hard to come by experienced people in this particular topic, but you seem like you know what you’re talking about! Thanks"
(I really liked this one's placing... it was on a post I'd titled "Everybody Needs a Bosom for a Pillow" Hahahaha... I do know what I'm talking about!)


"Everything is very open with a precise explanation of the challenges. It was truly informative. Your site is very useful. Thanks for sharing!"

"As the admin of this web page is working, no uncertainty very rapidly it will be well-known, due to its feature contents"

Okay, spammers,  I hate you all, I report you all, I review and delete you all. You will NEVER get a click-through from my blog.
You're never going to get a comment to stick on my blog, ever, if it contains any sort of link to any sort of commercial site. Powder Coating in Portland? Payday Loans? You must be idiots, as are the people who hire you.
I would never use any company which used spam,  ever.

And I'd like to think most of my readers are savvy enough to never click a spam link either. Let's face it, you spammers are lower than slug-slime.

  1. Yup! I removed the word verification and anonymous was on instantly!
    I suffer this as folks don't like verification, neither do I, but I keep the moderation to prevent spam. Mostly it is porn, photo booths (?) and other things. In short it's all porn written American style I would say, learned from movies, mostly by Chinese or Russians.

  2. You are sounding even more paranoid than before. Lighten up. Smell the roses. Take your meds.

  3. I don't, in all honesty, understand your difficulties. I have moderation on for anything older than a couple of days, possibly three, I can't remember, but I don't have the dreaded captcha on. Only on very rare occasions does any spam get published. All the rest goes straight into the spam folder or whatever they call it. OK, I have to moderate a few older comments but nothing too demanding there.

    For instance I have been inundated by some idiot telling me about payday loans recently. I ignore them because they do get caught. I just delete the email.

    1. I'm with Max and A .... all my spam gets automatically collected into blogger's spam file - I can manually delete it or it will delete itself after 30 days. As for their email notification - I just delete those as i do all comments once I've read them. I haven't had a single spam comment get posted on any of my blogs - and you bet, Lola's Loves gets a lot of spam!! I do the comment moderation on older posts - and even that rarely needs to be checked.

      I really really really really hate word verification on blogs.... did I mention how much I hate word verification on blogs ????? You have to be a very special person for me to comment on a blog with word verification....
