Guess What I Stumbled Into This time

Welcome back!

I stopped by my stumbleupon profile a while ago and I saw something I actually didn't expect... Spam. It wasn't even the kind of thing that you could say actually could be legitimate, like a website with tempting offers from an online car insurance company or a super cheap printer ink supplier.

In fact, it was promoting a url that was truly useless since according to whois it had never been registered before (No, I'm not telling either)

I genuinely hate it when forums or the messaging functions of something like Stumbleupon get spammers using them because next thing you know they're forced to implement captchas and other means to prevent bots from sending messages because that always takes some of the fun out of a forum.

    Do captchas have to be the funky hard to read stuff, or does your anti-spam word work just as well?

    James Christensen’s last blog post..Vernon Gholston is a bad man.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
