Is anyone else getting just gibberish in their Blue Sun comments? Not spam anymore, just anonymous gibberish. Very annoying.

Looks like we have another spambot about.

Doom! I think maybe you should have to be signed on to post comments; that might eliminate a lot of botting.

That's a great idea! I'm sure Haken would approve.

Is that what all that crap is? I thought someone was just being infantile.
So who is he?
He's my husband.
Well who in the damn galaxy ain't!

Well then I hope he sees it and puts it into practice.
You know, it would also eliminate those people who say nasty things anonymously. I know many authors and other aritists complain about that.
BSC, I thought it was someone being infantile, too, but it's on basically every image posted today, which is very strange. nothing from past days seems to have it.

Maybe I'm being obtuse here, but what possible benefit could that be to a spammer? There is no link to a web page selling Viagra, other cheap meds, stock picks,Nigerian scams, or porn involving animals like all of the other spam that gets filtered out of my inbox. So what good is it?
Not to go off topic here, but does any of that actually work. I guess it does to an extent, or else the spammers would stop sending it, but does anyone know of someone who has actually responded to spam?
So who is he?
He's my husband.

Yeah, that confuses me too. Maybe it is a particularly stupid spambot? Not sure if it really is, but the site was acting up a little for me, and last time it was bots causing that.
Anyway, no, I don't know anyone who has responded to spam, but then then I've never known anyone who "needed" such things; i.e. elargement, viagra, beastiality porn....

Yes,I forgot about the "grow your junk" spam on my list. I did see an interesting blog about a year ago from someone who took it upon themselves to totally 
with some Nigerian scammer. It was hi-larious!
So who is he?
He's my husband.

Oooooh, do you remember it? That would be funny! I love hearing stories about how to mess with telemarketers, too.
