The REALLY Annoying Thing ~ A Thursday Thought

Most of the time, I enjoy blogging. And I am trying to be very positive about this REALLY ANNOYING situation. It’s not EASY.

The name of “the annoying thing” is fengfk2008. It used to be “anonymous” but I eliminated that choice from my comment section.

I shall loosely refer to him/her/it as a commenter on this blog. Check out comment # 6 on the previous post (hurry because it is going to be deleted soon). My problem with this commenter is that his/her/its comments are posted in either Chinese or Japanese. I chose to NOT find out which. Sometimes there are words that magically appear in English. Off the top of my head, I remember chocolate and motel – and whatever that word is in the previous post’s comments. I really appreciate my native language -- ENGLISH. And it is really the only language in which I am fluent.

To fengfk2008: Don’t hide behind a language you know can’t be understood by the majority of people reading this blog. PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE… IF YOU CAN READ THIS, either leave your comments in English or STOP leaving comments.


Is this a blog spammer? And, if so, what do I do about it? I have attempted to thwart this commenter by having to approve the comments first before it posts. This delayed the comments and drew some negative reaction from the few regular readers I have. So I then deleted the ability for an anonymous commenter to post. Well fengfk2008 got around that also.

Can you understand my frustration… or am I just over-reacting? I’m ready to go back to monitoring my comments again… does anyone have any other suggestions?

  1. Delete it honey. It is simply spam. Sometimes you can track it back to their site, but I couldn't with this one.

    I translated one of their comments:

    是未來科技的驅勢 Which means:

    Drive the future of science and technology potential

    It's just spam and we all get hit with it. Just delete it and don't let these idiots ruin your day.

    Have a terrific day. Big hug. :)

  2. Spam usually computer driven with no human being present. Not worth fussing just dump in trash can.

    There is an award waiting for you. Come and get it.
