Oh My Gosh, I Forgot!!!

March 17, 2010

The other day, I updated my “**ur**   **oir” page (substitute the “**“with “Ch” and you will know the page I’m talking about) and I am now being inundated with so much “!orn   s!am” (substitute the “!” with a “p” and you will know what  I am talking about). I absolutely cannot believe my eyes!!! Luckily, most of it is in an alphabet system that I cannot understand, so I don’t have to catch any of the messages while trying to delete it.

I know what type of messages they are, though, since the first word in the majority of this s!am is the word !orn (same substitution trick as above), so I can guess the gist (or should that be gistS?)

When I say “inundated” I mean just that. This morning I “got to” open up this page to be greeted by over thirty of these messages. Luckily, they are in my the s!am catcher!!! What fun! (NOT!!!) I have tried to figure out why this particular post is the most prone to get program-generated “comments” from machines that want to simply post their links… LOTS of links!!!

This is the very same reason I don’t allow comments to post on my site without first sifting through them. Thank goodness I have the best fire-wall program which is able to go through the comments, and pull the unwanted jerk-y comments from the legitimate  messages. (Anyway, my husband thinks its the best fire-wall program. I just rely on him to know these things… and to install and update my fire-wall as I need it. It’s great to have a “web master” in the family!!!)

I try to make sure that none of your comments are mistakenly caught by our fire-wall, but on days when I have so many s!am in my s!am-catcher, I don’t even look through them. I just hit the delete button and hope I haven’t missed any of your legitimate comments, and also hope that if I do, you will realize that I don’t mean anything personal…

Why is it that people (or machines that are programmed by people) are able to ruin other people’s experiences on the internet?!?!

It makes me quite sad that these programs exist, and that there are so many jerks out there who feel the necessity to program these programs. All I can say about this is:  #&&(* %^^^> **!!!

PS>>> I know that I have written about this before… probably every time I update the “**ur**  **oir” page! And, the reason I am using the code is that if I actually have the entire word posted, the “creep trolls” find the site and send even more!

    I really wish there was a universal command that would stop these spams from reaching our mailbox. Luckily I don’t get as many as I used to, but still, I hate seeing them in my box.
