While I am not personally attacking eyescoffee for stating his true feelings on the matter, I have to totally agree with blackhawk’s statement above. It is very wrong, IMHO, to go to another person’s website, particularly one with no relevence to your industry, and post your links. I find that even if people have found your site that way, how could they really trust it. As we’ve seen, people do not forget. If you were a shill, however, a year later you’ve changed your ways, there still will be people that remembered you from then first and may opt not to refer to your website when looking to play online, buy shoes, book a room or what have you.

Got a reply from google, lets see if anything gets done:

To whoever it may concern..
It is not just lazy, unwatchfull Bloggers with undertrafficed sites that get the comment “manipulators”..
A technorati search for Comment Spam will yield a constant flow of posts posted by bloggers from all across the web.
The comment spammers bring down servers on the level of a Dos attack such is the volume.

I tried to implement a blog, and within days it was being hit by the same type of proxies (proxys?) as technorati mentions. Also, a lot of the newer type blog scripts allow mobile phone commenting, whereas you don’t even have to be on the computer to dole out 200 messages in 2 minutes. Needless to say, I permanently shut the blog down, it wasn’t worth it,as it was not being productive with ‘comment spammers’ strangling the would be life out of it. And yes, this type of comment spam could overload your server and become as DOS-like attack.
A new thing is Blog Comment Flash Mobs which are pretty harmless and are tolerated.
Wufu.. The blogger.com comments seem to work well enough to stop the comment spammers. Used to use haloscan comments system which used javascript. Those started to receive comment spam too.
That would be what i’d advise someone to use if they want to start a blog.
Good advice, joeyl, thank you..
Google top for “texas holdem poker” is doing bloggs alot.
Maybe this is not of interess or have been mention about.MORE for those that are interested.
So now the table is turned – It is you people who are whining that people are “ratting you out” that should get busy working and being competitive instead of relying on software and spam techniques to cheat your way to the top.
How very true. Lets face it spammers; if you view it okay to use this method where the majority view it as spamming, then (though this probably won’t bother you): you’re basically saying out one side of your mouth that “anything goes” and out of the other you cry “don’t tell on me because that’s not playing fair!”
anything goes is anything goes. crying don’t tell on me makes you a hypocrite. But like I said; that fact probably doesn’t bother you.
If anything goes then stop crying that spammers are beating you in the SERPS. Most topics about spamming is webmasters complaining that a ‘spammer’ is beating them.
For the record I do not rely on ‘spamming blogs’ to get good positions.
Remember: On topic spam is still on topic.
IMO there will be no more meaningful discussion from this topic.
A friend of mine has a political blog with the comments de-activated and he just found a bunch of posts like this:

Nothing personal, this is just discussion about spamming. Here are some corrections you may find amusing:
Most topics about spamming is webmasters complaining that a ‘spammer’ is beating them.
Most topics about spamming is webmaster complaining that a ‘spammer’ is spamming, not beating them.
Remember: On topic spam is still on topic.
Remember: On topic spam is still spam, too.
IMO there will be no more meaningful discussion from this topic.
For once, we agree. (to steal a line from a recent Michael Moore movie)
Cheers Mate!
