The new LJ bot army
Nov. 1st, 2011 11:16 amMy last post drew interestingly non-specific replies from two new LJ users:
fulviaituv and
fotinasusid.
I've given them 12 hours to prove their humanity, and then plan to delete their comments. What I can't puzzle out - and what prompts my asking people now - is what the bots hope to achieve? I don't see any hidden links that would add Google juice, which used to be the goal.
(I originally wrote this as a reply to someone else's journal, when she got a similarly vague reply from
portiearo, and then decided I wanted to post about it here.)
