So, I recently saw some spam comments on an article I guest posted on Thousandaire. I'm glad he left them up, because I decided to handle the spam in my own way (see pic below). How do you handle spam? Laugh

Funny response! But there is so much spam that you just can't keep up with this unfortunately. I once wrote a post about why you should not spam blog comments. Guess what? Thats right, I got loads of spam on that post! So what I did was publish some in the comments section, but took out any links so that they would receive no benefit. The first one I received made me laugh. Here's what it said (remember this is in response to a post about not spamming blog comments!)…

 

“A different issue is that video gaming has become one of the all-time most significant forms of entertainment for people of any age. Kids participate in video games, plus adults do, too. The XBox 360 has become the favorite gaming systems for those who love to have hundreds of games available to them, and also who like to learn live with people all over the world. Many thanks for sharing your opinions in Why You Shouldn’t Spam Blog Comments”

Thanks Jake, check out my post about Not Spamming for a few I collected. To my surprise it has become my most popular post. I think its good to sometimes have a laugh about it, otherwise it could drive you crazy!
