Thank you for doing this for us little fish.

TY for all the support...
Spam is a big issue now.
I don't see it too much personally, but I think it happens more for you big guys. I'm definitely doing my bit when it comes on my posts. I'm so happy you guys are on it and I guess it will never really end but the less the better :)
I do appreciate the comments.
Some people are thinking my posts are a magnet for it.
I post a lot too, more than most, so that is part of it for sure, my visibility for the spammy spammersons are a target like that.
Thanks for the comments again!
I don't see a weakness in your posts at all. It's just that you have a high rep and do post frequently - so they see you more AND target you. I have run into two people - early on here - who both told me they were commenting madly on all the big guys in order to get attention. Nothing I said made a difference. Presumably, they did not make it. Both had cutesy long comments with formatting like crazy - such obvious spam. But they both thought is was a good idea :)
I try to message people like that before flagging them but they make it hard to show grace some days
LOL
I know! I was talking to bots and trying to reason with them like an idiot!
We haz the dumbz together sometimes I guess my friend
LOL
