Disabling Spammy Comment Likes
The last day or so I’ve had many notifications of someone systematically ‘liking’ old comments I’ve made on other blogs. It reminded me of this post, only this time so far the comment likes are not on my own blog but others. It’s annoying but I guess there’s nothing that can be done about it. I wish WordPress would make a Spam filter on ‘comment likes’ like they do with ‘comments.’ Maybe you all are experiencing this too? ~ sigh ~

My actual Spam folder has gone crazy over the past few days, but I haven’t been getting those same ‘likes’. I looked at my original comment, and remember it was a Russian-origin sex-site. Hopefully, they will soon tire of bombarding you.
Best wishes, Pete.
I’m feeling stalked – it’s creepy! Yes, I hope they get tired and go away! 😉
Wow. Thanks for the heads up!
You’re welcome. It’s unfortunate but seems to be part of blogging. I just try not to click on links or gravatars of those persistent unwanted likes. There’ currently no way to prevent them. 😦
My spam folder has gone into overdrive this week…Thing is sometimes good bloggers get ensnared 🙂 xx
I’ve had that happen too! I do take a look in my spam folder now and then to rescue the good ones! 🙂
I don’t know where they get the energy from sometimes …I block where I can but they just change one digit 🙂
Seriously, It seems to come in waves. I’m hoping it will pass soon.
I’ve noticed a clogged up spam folder too! Crazy stuff. Hope it goes away soon.
Me too. 😊
