What do you consider a comment worthy and one that's not?
I was just checking emails, and there was a comment that was from my movie blog. So I hit the link to the day in question, only there was no comment. So I checked the spam box, and sure enough the blog comment was sitting there.
I don't remember having put the filters on for that blog so I read the comment. And right off it seems like a perfectly normal comment about the movie. But three sentences in, you can tell it's an add.
It was the length of a paragraph. And I thought about it for a few minutes, there were no links in it, the person's name linked not to another blog or site or anything but to a profile.
So, I thought what the hell, and let the comment on. They had stuff in the comment that they clearly had come up with themselves, as in nothing that I had already stated, which means they ether were clever enough to do research on the movie or have actually seen it themselves. And they picked up on one thing that I was hinting at but didn't say right out.
It was the three lines of crap in the middle which was what caused it to be considered spam-a-lot.
