Text “spinning” spammers

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2012

I received a funny spam entry the other day. The author was:

From{Holy cow|Wow|HEH!} what I have to {post|say} {completely|definitely|without a doubt} {fits well on this|applies to this} {thread|post|blog|topic}, I {recently discovered|discovered|stumbled upon|found} this {website|site} called PointStackers and {its|it on Call of Duty: Black Ops # [Pending]

This is obviously a text template for “spinning”, i.e. marginally modifying a given text for Google spamming. Idiots.

Portal on Steam – free download!

Friday, May 14th, 2010

As a promotion, the cool game “Portal” is now available for free on Steam (http://www.steampowered.com/)!
Portal is a mind-blowing game utilizing the Half-Life 2 engine and focusing on puzzling, instead of shooting things. In this game, you have a portal cannon that you can use to open, err, yes, portals. These obey the law of physics (if you throw something onto a portal on the floor, it will fall through) and are used for all kinds of very tricky puzzles.

Portal is a very nice casual game, with a steep learning curve and lots of mind-boggling tricks to it. You should download it now – the promotion only lasts until 24th of May

WoW Gold – Reach Gold Cap in 30 Seconds using WoW Gold Manuals

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

See? I can spam, too.

Seriously. A lot of comment spam arrives here, and the vast majority of it are regarding manuals that tell you how to get massive amounts of WoW Gold. Some even claim you can reach Gold Cap (the informal word for the maximum of 214748 gold, 36 silver, 48 copper that any one character can hold in their bags) in a mere weeks.

Let me tell you: 99% of these guides are complete and utter crap. From the ones I have seen so far, most are uselessly outdated and consider information that is either completely trivial or just not universally feasible.

An interesting note is that these gold guides are mainly promoted with “affiliate programs” that give the affiliates a higher commission percentage than what the original author earns. This leads to what? Spam, massive amounts of it  – polluting the Google index and my (and other) blog.

This pisses me off. That’s why I’m gonna give you guys a couple tips for free, should you not have them figured out by yourself.
