Comments on: Booting someone http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/booting-someone/ neat fun stuff Sun, 21 Mar 2010 03:46:23 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Penny Go http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/booting-someone/#comment-265454 Penny Go Thu, 05 Mar 2009 06:03:51 +0000 http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/booting-someone/#comment-265454 Worth the price of admission to find out about http://cursebird.com/netmeg! THAT cracked me up! Now, on topic, I don't mind the rude comments on my blogs (I have 15) at least I'm connecting with a human that has (what they perceive as) a real agenda. (I delete them, no big deal...) It's the humanistic spammers that wreck my day! ex: I got a comment that said "nice post, learned something new, BTW you site doesn't display correctly in ...." - I thought oh, how nice of them to tell me! And their link to their site was a little off, but could have been a real site, not a dead ship link barge, until I saw clever variations of the same post about 100 times that day on quite a few of my sites! I HATE the junky spambot commenters!!! I'll take cranky/crazy any day! Worth the price of admission to find out about http://cursebird.com/netmeg! THAT cracked me up!

There's an Igorberger stirring up trouble on the English Wikipedia, and by following his tracks around the 'Net I've found comments and blog posts (among other things) disparaging Google and even hating on you personally, Matt. At least, I think this post is the same person: http://www.igorthetroll.com/blog/evil-google-and-dr-evil-matt-cutts/ (I followed a link from en.wp to MyBlogLog and from there to the site, so it's probably him.) That user's been disrupting on Wikipedia, too. He posts trollish comments on the user talk pages of administrators, suggesting that they don't know what an admin is and that they should step down. Hmm... :-/ And his site openly declares that he was banned from the GWHG. Does this user sound familiar?

I don't think you should talk too much about how you deal with spam though. You basically told all the spammers how to avoid getting all their comments removed. Obviously they just need to vary their e-mail addresses and link to different urls. Part of being a spammer is finding ways around things setup to block spam.

The type that are scared of the world, but derive power by blasting people online. Online they won't get their butts kicked.
