I has my crazy eyes on you, spammers. |
Since my last post there has been some.... spam-related developments. Unfortunate ones. It appears my dogblog is enjoying a newfound and highly annoying popularity with more and more spammers every day! They have greatly increased the amount of insightful commentaries deposited onto my dogblog - just in the last 5 days! I think it is because very few peoples, let alone dogs, truly takes the time to address the questionings and concernings of spammers the way I does. They is a very misunderstood group I is now seeing, desperate for attention and also for the three copper coins they gets into Nigerian bank account when someone clicks on their
Spammers now is flocking to me, Reuben, for advice on many different kinds of things, and offering advices of their own, and my burgeoning populatities has given me a great amount more of blog-monitoring duties. These has begun to encroach on my chewing and napping schedules, and as a result I has had to make a change to my commentary moderations. That change being mainly that now all commentaries will be moderated.
It is a great burden to be the pioneering soul that I is, willing to take time out of my busy day to address the concerns of spammers. Now I faces unusual dilemma: if I requires user registration in order to post commentaries, no longer will my loyal spam readers be able to break through, and no longer I will be able to has more of Reuben's Q&As with Spammers! So for now, I does commentary moderation in order to control the flood of
Now if you will does an excusing of me, I is very tired after a long night of whining and also stepping all over Mama to make her carry me downstairs for a drink of water, after which she no could go back to sleep for eleventy hours. If I no gets 19 hours of sleep a day I gets crabby! I think Mama never gets enough sleeps, for often she is crabby. I's sure that has nothing to do with my frequent thirsties in the middle of the night.
More waters. NOW. |
Hey Reuben - do you have your blog set up not to accept anonymous comments. This some times keeps away the spam.
ReplyDeleteYour pal, Pip
Well Mr Pip, that is very good idea, but also I enjoys making fun of - I mean, writing blogs about - my spammers, and if I turn of anonymouses then I no will gets any more spams to write about!
Deletelove,
Reuben
Hey Reuben! We have a water bowl in our bedroom which we let mom fill at our beck and call...

Also is a very good idea - except my correct-sized legs no permits me to get out of the bed by my Self; I has to get a lift from a people.
Deletelove,
Reuben
Reuben, reading your thoughts and your discussions with your spammers is reward enough for comment moderating...You are a pioneer among dog bloggers!
ReplyDeleteperhaps your mama could put a refreshing bowl of water on the night stand to quench your midnight thirsties! (my mama says she forsees disasters of flooded alarm clocks, etc, but i think it's brilliant!)

Reuben, there are doggy stairs and doggy walking planks.... or horrors, a doggy bed beside mommies bed with the water bowl and a pee pad... just thinking of you. You would hate for mommy to get herself hurt from being overtired and then not be able to help you.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the vet says that you are just thirsty in the night and it isn't anything nasty.
I love Edgar's idea but his mama is probably right. BOL

Reuben you are cracking us up again. LOL! We were so looking forward to the next spam-fest. Maybe word has got out in Spamville about your pawsome blog. They obviously appreciate your thoughtful responses which we may add you do so well and with such serious endeavour.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Friday.
Best wishes Molly
I had the same type of spamming problem. That's why I moved over to wordpress. You never even have to deal with it there!
ReplyDeleteThat is so annoying. Why don't they go hack something else

Aww, those Spammers are going to so sad to have lost their insightful leader. You just can't keep taking time out of your busy sleeping schedule to mentor them though, can you Reuben.

We've noticed too that we are getting hit with more and more spam (and no, not the kind in the can either.) It's starting to get most annoying so we can totally understand your plight. So moderate away if you need to we tell ya.
ReplyDeleteHas your Mama ever thought of doggie ramp for the bed? Or perhaps putting a coffee cup of water on the nightstand for you? That way she doesn't have to drag her butt outta bed. Bcuz the more sleep she get's.... Well you know where I'm going with that.....
Hugs,

Knock on wood. We haven't had spammers.
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
Oh Reuben, you are so funny! I also enjoy waking my parents up in the middle of the night. Sometimes for a drink, sometimes for a pee, and sometimes for a poo. I like to mix it up just to keep them on their toes.

We've seen an increase in spammers on "How Sam Sees It" too. We've changed our commenting options and it has stopped. It didn't bother us too much, although it was rather annoying.
ReplyDeleteSam
I am sorry about the spammers, they should all be punished!! I am glad you are in perfect health and just thirsty.
ReplyDeleteLoveys Sasha
Sorry about all of the spammers! Hope they don't cause too much extra work.
ReplyDeleteYou look like you really needed that water! :)
