Thank You Spam!

Wow, between Sep 24 1:14 am Sep 25 6:07 am, 13 people all from IP address 60.75.111.14 posted to thank me for “L’s Linky Love!” I feel so overwhelmed with the gratitude pouring from all parts of the globe.

Here we have two blog visitors from France:

A nice note from ‘evden eve nakliyat’, who must think this blog is written by more than one young man:

thank you boys

Look, ‘evden eve nakliyat ‘ changed his email address (there by ensuring he would never ever get any link juice.)

‘etkileyici msn nickleri ‘who must be fascinated reading “thank you” over and over:

Someone, who like the others, is using a keyboard with no “Caps” key:

‘evden eve nakliyat’ using yet another email address:

Does anyone even know where “.gz” is? Do they really want me to visit their site map?

Fortunately, this is the last one, but notice they are very very grateful!

thank you very very much

Well…. these notes of gratitude are very sweet. But, I think these grateful people need to learn that to get a follow they must match all three of the following at once:

  1. The “first name” in the name field.
  2. The full email address and
  3. The top level domain.

I mean, it’s just a shame that after all that effort with a broken keyboard, they never got a “follow”. Or were these “extremely relevant comments” added these using ‘Blog Comment Poster”? (Yes, such things exist. Yes, I’m making sure I learn their features. No, I don’t think you should buy it.)

Of course, when I saw all 13 matching IP’s I hurled these into Akismet’s spam maw. I’m sure you’ll do the same when ‘evden eve nakliyat’ from IP: 160.75.111.14 visits your site. But he probably won’t visit because by now, I’m sure Akismet has figured out that IP: 160.75.111.14 is a spammer.

    Yep… I’m subscribed to that thread and when I opened my email that day I thought the mail from “Big Bucks Blogger” was never going to end… hehe

    P.S. I love the “Subscribe to Comments” plugin and I wish everyone would use it…
