Comment Spam!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

If there’s one thing that’s driving me nuts at the moment it’s comment spam.

Granted I’ve not exactly been a prolific poster, so getting hundreds of thoughtful comments every day isn’t going to happen. But I wasn’t prepared for the level of comment spam I’d get!

For those not familiar with the term, comment spam is the addition of comments to a post such as this, containing advertising, usually for porn or scams. I tend to get between 2 and 10 comments every day, most of which make absolutely zero sense in the context of my blog. They usually come in the middle of the night UK time, also, which further annoys me when my Blackberry goes off in the middle of the night.

I’m afraid, as a result, comments are going off! If anyone genuinely does want to comment (which hasn’t happened yet, so I won’t hold my breath) then just email me!!!
