| Surrogate the spammer? |
| 03.03.09 (8:38 am) [edit] |
Good morning Boys and Girls.It has come to my attention that someone thinks I am the mad comment-spammer here on tBlog. First, let me explain my abilities here in the cyberworld... Has anyone noticed that I never post any pictures in my posts? This is not because I don't care for pictures. This is because I can't figure out how to do it. I think I've managed it twice in the four-plus years I've been posting here, plus on a couple of occasions I've figured out how to post links to youtube videos. Unfortunately for me, I've never been able to replicate the procedures unless someone walks me through it. A few months ago, I posted a pic of SweetLady and me, and SHE had to talk me through it every step of the way - much to her chargrin. She was annoyed, and rightfully so, especially since it really didn't seem that complicated as we did it. Afterward, I thought to myself, "Hell, this was easy. I can do this again on my own." Nope. I've tried on three or four occasions, and have screwed it up every single time. (I told her about the accusation yesterday, and she laughed out loud. See, she KNOWS how stupid I am when it comes to this stuff.) The idea that I could figure out a way to do massive spamming is about as logical as the idea that I could... Well, I have a hard time even buying things online, simply because I always screw up the procedure. Last night I had to renew a few domain names I've owned for a while but have never done anything with, (mostly because I'm so lame at setting up even the simplest template-based web-sites.) I ended up on the phone with domain.com for an hour because I'd filled in a couple of fields incorrectly and as such, they'd rejected my payment. Anyway, I hate spam. I always have and always will, and if I knew who had enough time to waste and enough expertise to pull it off? -I'd alter my standard close. -Maybe something like: Be good to everyone, -except spammers, whom I think we should boil in lard, so that if they don't burn to death, they at the very least die of a heart attack. |

No idea. Ask pastor Dave. He's the one who told me about it.

Frankly, and maybe this is unreasonable, but I was kind of hurt someone would suspect me of that sort of crap in the first place.

Geesh! Why would anybody think you would do that? That is absurd to begin with, not to mention the physical act of doing it even more so.
Silliness, I tell you. That spammer was obviously some sort of automatic program based on the frequency, consistency and the sheer number of people it seemed to have affected.

You told us all of that to just throw us off your track, right?
seriously surrogate i can't imagine anyone accusing you of that.

not unreasonable at all, and my feelings would have been hurt too. you have actively engaged in furious dialogue at times, had several arguements, but always within the bounds of blogging protocol.
to even consider you as the troll is ridiculous. trolls are anonymous, stupid and like to hide.
that doesn't describe either one of us, so all I can say is that the person who accused you is either brain dead or doesn't know you very well at all.
shame.

I would NEVER have suspected you-- for one thing, the spammer's posts were WAY too short for you :-) I mean that in the kindest way possible-- you savor words...
Keep blooming!
