Spamming comments and Lunar Eclipse video

OK, I have to admit. In the beginning I was wondering why John Chow let all the spamming comments pass thru his blog. However, once I read this comment on It Pays to Network by one of the top spammers :-), I can understand now why were they racing in filling up John Chow’s comment spot. A win-win situation for both the spammers and John Chow’s website, since his community keep expanding and the spammers :-) got a reward with higher Technorati ranking even though their actions may have irritated few of the conservative mind visitors.

BTW, for people that may have missed the Lunar Eclipse last night, here is a good video from Imaginova Studios.

Not the life event but very informative. Enjoy!

    I don’t refer to myself a “spammer” but a “dedicated commenter!” :twisted:

    I never meant to piss anyone off and I really do try to post comments that are relevant to the conversation - and not spammy comments like:

    Yeah!
    Great!
    Me too!
    Good job!

    Anyway, thanks for the links - and for the Google Bomb! ;)

    Since changing the title will affect the links, I’d use ‘dedicated spammer’ when I refer to creative responder like you. :-) Oops, I mean ‘dedicated commentator’ like you. But hey, actually I’m not the one that use this ‘S’ word first. Please check the comments in the following posting on How I Got Banned, Then Unbanned From Technorati, and you will find the comment like this:

    Yeah, give the rest of us a chance to spam :lol:

    But kidding aside, congratulation Saman. I saw that your Technorati rank has jumped into 52,000 range. Hope you don’t have to go through being banned and unbanned like your evil master. :lol: But what happens to your page 2? The link isn’t working anymore. Was that temporary?
