PEOPLE commenting on Articles and the response clearly shows they haven't Read the ARTICLE -
Don't you just love when people respond on an article you wrote and their response clearly shows that they haven't read the article? This seems to be happening more and more with the articles I write. I suppose people just respond in mass to articles with the hope of me going to their sites and voting up? I don't know.
What are your thoughts? Has this been happening to you also? Some of the response I must admit are quite humorous. One article I recently wrote about was about possibly "quitting my job". The "quitting my job" part was in the middle of the article. One person responded "good advice, I will follow that". I was just laughing.
Another person responded to one of my articles with a blank image photo of some words with a green back ground. This person said "Really Great Photo". I was really laughing at that one.
Give me some feedback about your comical responses from people. Cheers.
I LOVE STEEMIT.

PS: Still teaching my kids how to Steemit to get some steem.
I couldn't agree more buddy. It's getting stupid and in some cases offensive.
Check this post of mine. Harrowing stuff. Go to the very bottom and check out the comment. What a moron.

Could we order a dozen cheese burgers, fries and cokes - please. When should we expect delivery thanks?
Nice. Now following your blog. Cheers.
I also really love the ones where you post a long article or even a 10 minute video and get your first comment in 30 seconds. Thanks but no thanks am I right?!
You are correct.
.. Steemians (the non bot type) need to stop feeding (paying) them ...they will soon leave ...
Yes. I agree 100%. Cheers mate.
This recipe looks delicious. I'll have to try it.
Just kidding!
It's getting really annoying. I avoided using flags for almost an entire year but last week I broke and started flagging these spammers. I always check to see if they are spamming. Sometimes it's someone who's English isn't good and they are writing very similar comments. It may seem like spam sometimes but they are trying their best to provide a good comment so it's good to check before you flag. But for the real spammers, if you look through their comments section they are getting a few pennies here and there from their comments and they really shouldn't be. It would be great to have a bot with enough power to downvote spam and remove any value they receive from tricking people. I don't want to use my daily votes on flags but it's really starting to happen.
Good advice in checking to see if its their English or if they are a legit spammer. Yes, the recipe is delicious. lol
Yea, there are people using bots to comment on each and every post with the end-goal of achieving upvotes and followers.
I can see that working, but also decreasing your value as an author once recognized. I, myself, choose to not do it.
If you go to the #indroduceyourself tag, you'll see that almost every new post gets some 3-4 comments as soon as they are posted. It clearly shows that there is bot-ing action in there.
Great post, bringing up a relevant topic. Thanks! Followed :)
Yes, I've seen that before as well. 3 or 4 people posting on someones post as soon as it comes out. Must be a bot. Have a good one. I am now following your blog.
It's been happening ever since I started on Steemit but has gotten a lot worse recently.
I can't imagine how many spammers attack you. Level 74. You must be swamped with them. Thanks for the reply thecryptofiend.
Those are cool coins man! Where did you get them?
Wait? Maybe I forgot to read the article... lol.
I get that so much too, its gotta be bots, a lot of the account I notice it on are below 25 reputation
I noticed the reputations too of some of them. You are right. I remember seeing one rep score at 11. Those are cool coins. HA.
