dbskylerI just got a spam insult! Here's what they said (followed by a link, which of course I didn't click on):
-------
The next time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I do know it was my choice to learn, but I truly thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you would repair when you werent too busy looking for attention.
-------
Is this a new tactic to get around LJ's spam filters? If so, it seemed to work, as it wasn't automatically screened as a suspicious comment. However, the other big spam red flags were present: bad grammar, lack of punctuation, and a comment from a new person to a post that is several years old. You'd think those would all be things that LJ could add to their algorithms (especially the last one, which is the single biggest indicator of spam, at least in my journal).
