I get between ten and fifty spam comments a day that feature long lists of linked urls.
WordPress, by default, moderates all comments with more than three linked urls.
By default. Like, I don’t have to know anything about blogging or spam for this to happen. It does it for me. I assume other blogging software does similar stuff. So these comments never get through. Never.
So if the spam never gets through, what’s the point? Who is it reaching? Who is the target audience?
Seriously, I have no idea.
But if you scroll past the list of moderated spam comments, it’s kind of funny. It all blurs together, so you end up seeing things about having anal sex with vicodin.
