If they don’t wish to have tons of links for viagra, online casino, car loans etc. it is within their power to do something about it. The blogs where I see this is where the owner hasn’t been around in a long time. Any popular blog with lots of current traffic doesn’t seem to have this problem
Yup, just like I can hang up the phone on a telemarketer. Doesn’t mean it’s fun, or that you’re not wasting my time. Or that you’re not invading my privacy.
To say that you SPAM when “you’re extremely bored or fustrated with current rankings” is akin to saying “When I’m bored, I waste other people time to see if something happens”
It also seems to indicate that the “SPAM=sites positioned above mine” mantra probably originated from spammers themselves and NOT someone who is trying to improve SE results by reporting the spam as indicated by someone else prior in this thread.
