Bloody Comment Spam

Filed under: Chinese Multi Media — Shanghai @ 1:56 pm

Just spent 15 minutes of my life deleting one by one 200 lovely comment spam messages. Comment spam, for those of you who have not been exposed to it yet, are comments in the form of very annoying advertising messages. Comments that add nothing besides letting the websurfer now where to go for gambling etc. If only they would compensate me for the trouble by posting a cleverly written advertorial comment or maybe even clicking an add it might be bearable. But just this blatant crap have made me decide to turn off the comment section until I have implemented some serious anti-comment spam filters.

Update: I just counted again as I get an email for every “comment’ that is placed.. 393 is the current result, 393 times clicking “delete”
