When people show kindness, if you can’t reciprocate, at least be considerate!
I thought yesterday’s Friday Linky Freebies was the most successful FLF to date because of the record high number of blogs that were entered. Instead of feeling happy though, I was upset when I confirmed that someone had the gall to include spam blogs in my list and had used out-of-this-world email addresses to register them.
I host the FLF without asking anything from the participants. I don’t even set a limit on the number of blogs that can be included. The most I expect is your consideration and respect.
Obviously, this guy (or girl, who knows) from Davao, Philippines thought differently and had the time of his life posting spam blogs on the linky list. What pissed me off is the fact that when he can’t think of a better term for an email address, he used words bordering on the OBSCENE! I mean, “Hey!!!”
Anyway, I already banned your I.P. address Mr. Bayantel User. And, no, you’ll never see your comments published on my blog even if you use your correct email address. Thank you very much for your wasted time and effort.
Friday Linky Freebies resumes next week – yes, despite the glitch!

Kainis naman yun! Pinatrabaho ka pa to delete his links and ban his IP. Grrr!
Gee says
Grrr nga talaga. I sent out emails to all who joined earlier today to confirm my suspicion that such email adds really don’t exist – I was right. I deleted 15 links from the FLF list.

wahhh sino yan.. Alam mo ba ang daming spam na comment akong dinedelete every morning, good thing blogger have their spam now.
Gee says
He wasn’t aware that I still am being informed thru email of new comments on the blog that I gave to a fellow blogger last month. I saw his name, email add and url in the comment that he had left there. When I saw his email add for another url in GEORYL’s comment section, I didn’t mind at first but in the linky, it’s tied with another blog.
Bloggers using various email adds are really not uncommon but somehow, I felt something is not right so I checked on the links added to the linky. I was pissed off with some of the email addresses used there and to confirm my doubt, I sent out an email to all those who participated yesterday. Almost 14 of them were “back-to-sender”. When I checked the IP address, they were made by only one person in Davao.
I don’t know the person and it’s the first time he dropped by my blog. I just have to delete the sites he added to the linky because, first: they looked spammy and 2nd, he pissed me off with the terms he had used in the fake email address.

Gee says
Hi kat, naku, kababayan mo pa pala ito. Hahaha! Anyway, sorry, I forgot to send out the reminder. Was quite busy last week. Bawi ka na lang this Friday ha.
Caroline says
sigh. there are some kind of blogger out there. 🙁 luckily everything is okie now. we dont need such blogger to ruin something good! 🙂
Gee says
you’re right caroline. don’t worry, FLF will still continue despite that one…”pest”… LOL!
Eihdra says
hahaha.. maybe thought he/she won’t be caught. I’m sure that person will come back often to read further comments made about him/her. And I’m pretty sure that this person will be in our blogs in no time to add more spammy comments. So let’s all be aware. Pwede namang kaibiganin, bakit mang-spam pa, hmp..
Gee says
Hmp talaga sya. Hehehe. I just felt something was wrong when I saw all the links shown in the FLF last Friday.
Feron says
Hi Gee… keep your cool!
The likes of it is not welcome at all, doing good is better and nice… why bother to a nonsense act, mahiya ka naman!!!
Christy says
That is insane, why anyone would do that, don’t they know it is more beneficial to truly network and consistently bring good traffic to favorite blogs? I’m sorry that happened.
elai says
