Hmmmm...

I see recently that the occasional faux livejournal blog has been commenting on my site with an ad or something totally inappropriate. There's one in the last post I put up, and I'm starting to get annoyed by it. I guess I'll have to give the LJ people a quick email, asking if there's better ways to block unwanted comments. I don't want to go friends only, though, since various non-lj friends check this site sometimes...Or I can just make fun of the obviously fake stuff, and have you all help me? I'm really a little nonplussed here...

Anybody out there have some good advice?

I get them too, but rather rarely. I just delete them and I don't know if the LJ comrades can help much. Sorry, not a lot of help.

I suppose that makes the best sense...it's just funny, it never really used to happen, ever, before they did all those newfangled changes:p

I would report the fake LJ. If enough people do that, I bet the account will be deleted.

makes sense to me...Grrrr! Set e-mail to "char!"

I just got one of those a little while ago. When you click "delete comment", one of the options is to ban the person, and another is to mark the comment as spam. :)

You can report fake LJs as spam, and I think you can set the default comments to screen all, or screen all non-friends.

As for the inappropriate stuff- I'm sorry. I'll try to tone it down ;)

yeah, you'd better, mister!! I'm watching you!! You and your tentacles!

[roadskoller.livejournal.com]

I've been noticing that too.

I think it's some result of all the stuff they did with LJ last fall, perhaps. It doesn't please me, nope nope...

I feel like a flame and the moths are fluttering with their fluttery like wings.

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

...So you're saying, we can flame on and singe, singe those pesky little wings?

*gets big lighter*

Just call me Icarus.

With my luck, I'd accidentally set fire to all the Internets, and get into BIG trouble...
