WOW O_O

[birdsofshore]

Somebody really spammed LJ pretty thoroughly, hmm?

*blinks at friends feed*

I don't even get what they're advertising? At first I thought it was an accident, like those nightmares where you post to a comm and for a second you think you've pressed 'post to ALL comms'. But it's lots of different users posting? I'm scared. What if it's somebody taking over other people's accounts to post indecipherable things? WHAT IF I'M NEXT? *clings to flist*

IKR? I reported each one as a bot. I wonder if they are all from the same IP address?

[cabinetcaligari.livejournal.com]

Wow, your feed looks even worse than mine!

But we're here! And if they have come to take over our flists, we will hide in a cave in Cornwall, and read each other smut by candle light, y/y?

Edit: also I found this and I had to think of you...

[vaysh]

It must be a bot who does it. *hates*

[vaysh]

How did you do the reporting as a bot?

[writcraft]

UGH, I know. I thought it was just one post and then I scrolled down and was like... o.O

I also hate that 'remove friend' is just below 'friends feed' in this layout on my screen. I nearly accidentally removed you and have nearly done that before when clicking through to other posts and then going back to my feed *CLINGS* - must remember not to check LJ before morning coffee :P

<3

[vaysh]

Found it. :)

[birdsofshore]

DON'T REMOVE ME! *wail*

I really dislike the new layout on LJ, especially on my phone. The endless scrolling doesn't work, you can't find anything.... grumble grumble.

They seem to be hard at it still! I've only got sherlock and hp comms on my feed, but they're all over both fandoms.

[birdsofshore]

I don't understand how that works, or what the point is? I can't see any link to buy anything. I just don't get it. *feels old*

That mix between English and Russian makes no sense. I think that the links inside the posts are infected with viruses. But I looked at the profiles of users who publish this nonsense - they are created on July 25 this year and none of them is a member of the communities in which they published.

[birdsofshore]

OMG. That link. OH MY GOD.

I can't focus on the rest of your comment, sorry. There are men. HAIRY, DARK-HAIRED MEN. There are even some armpits.

[birdsofshore]

Well done for reporting. ♥ They seem to be in full flow still!

[vaysh]

I can only imagine it's teen hackers doing it for the fun of it. The dark version would be that it's Russian government hackers trying to shut down down LJ again. *is sick of this*

[birdsofshore]

Frustrating and mystifying!

[writcraft]

Of course I wouldn't!! <3333

Yeah, me too - it drives me bonkers.

I've got Buffy comms and DW comms on my feed too and they seem to be hitting those too....

[capitu]

What! I was sleeping when this happened? Where was it? harrydraco?

My flist looks normal. ^^

[susan5124.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you found it. I'm in bed now and I was trying to remember how I did it. lol I think it involved hovering over their username/icon and it gave several options, including reporting a bot.

[vaysh]

No, no spam so far on harrydraco. *snuggles harrydraco*
But loads of other comms, even active ones like dracomalfoyfans and sherlock60.

[birdsofshore]

Look at my friends feed! It's a total mess ://

[birdsofshore]

And LOL at "I was sleeping when this happened"

ARE YOU SURE? Because I totally suspect YOU.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_hannelore/]

Yikes! I haven't seen any of that on my feed (yet... I just started), but that does indeed suck.

[capitu]

LOL Oh my god, look at your flist!

I mean...

>.< Oh my god, look at your flist!

What's even that? I get the O_O now. ^^

*hugs normal spam-free flist*

[capitu]

Was it about big dicks? Why did you suspect me? LOL

[susan5124.livejournal.com]

I don't know if it will do any good, but I had to try!

[besamislabios]

I started reported them, it's so annoying that each spam is made by a different account though. :(
At least I can read my flist to users only!
