Strange Blog Comments

36 replies
I have my blog comments set so that I have to approve them before they are posted, lol, I get some funny ones which end up in the trash, but none quite like this one I received today:

I love it! the colours work so well together, and the form really improves on his/her’s previous work. The use of goats testicles is really quite innovative!

    you've made me lol

    It's a slow build-up but the pay-off was worth it. Hey, at least the spammer has a sense of humor.

    This is what happens when small businesses hire $2 an hour SEO "specialists", and I use that term loosely, to do link building for them.

      Funny, but it still gets deleted off MY blogs. My spam policy is zero tolerance. If you hang around here but user xrumer and the like, well, you might be a warrior but you ain't no friend of mine.

      Yeah, I see that a lot. If I see that the business seems reputable I sometimes drop them an email and say hey, do you know that your 'SEO agency' is sullying your reputation? Not too many replies though...

        That's a classic. Maybe the poster has been watching I'm a celebrity get me out of here. I would remove their link before approving and add my own comment to it.

        Unfortunately the only way I've managed to stop it has been disabling comments on some of my blogs and funny enough if you check the spammers links out a lot of them have turned their comments off, spammers getting fed up with being spammed I think

    Ha ha I've just found it on one of my blogs. The plonker has linked to his profile on a computer forum that will surely get deleted if the owner gets spamming complaints

    I have seen some funny ones in the past also... like this one that was posted on a marketing mindset post of mine...

    "Great info on the topic, always craved to get one of these, but didn’t knew if it really worked like it should.
    Thnx"

    I wonder if these people even look at the post prior to the spam comment!!!

    3.8 cans of spam are consumed every second in the US - let's just hope they don't contain goats testicles...

      It would not actually surprise me if they did.

      The OP has no idea what he's started in revealing his USP. I can already imagine php coders competing with each other to be the first to produce the first WordPress goats' testicles plugin, the WSO forum will be alive with threads with titles like 'Billy's Nads Got Me $1,457.83 In 24 Hours! Let ME Show You How!' and hillsides and farmyards will be populated with herds of goats with watering eyes and no tackle. Be afraid. Be very afraid

    Some of those comments are probably auto posted by people using some kind of a mass blog commenting software.

    I remember a few months back i installed wordpress on one of my websites, left it alone for about a month came back and had about 300 spam comments. Its pretty messed up and really annoying.

    omg...spamming in this case actually has a purpose, making me go crazy as my coffee went all over my t-shirt...too much laughing; but seriously now, it seems a lot less worse than the usual spam...i would actually allow such comments on my blog if i'd had such humorous pieces of "wisdom"

      The same spammer left another funny comment on one of my blogs


      'When the hell you gonna get power dude, hit me up'

      Not as funny as the other comment but maybe he means I should use goats testicles to get power. If this spammer continues I might start looking forward to the comments

      Funny how the last post here was on the 23rd of December then cpalead thinks it'd be fun to backlink spam it with this highly ingenious, thought provoking and totally irrelevant comment, today...

      cpalead - Lol - Nice one!
      What a great comment. :rolleyes:
