I’ve been getting a lot of comments on my blog recently from different people with different email addresses. The IP address is always different too and there’s no http link specified in the url box, mostly just ‘#’.
It doesn’t qualify as spam because it goes nowhere and the comments don’t advertize a product or service. Most of the comments are in the meme of: “Hey, good article, I liked it a lot. MarlaX” or “Great blog, KaylaX” and so on.
What’s up with this? Is it a way to get into the unapproved commenting area? Because when I approve the comment, the next time somebody posts from that same IP with that same email address, the comment normally slips through without me having to confirm it. Then again, as soon as an http address is inserted it moves back to the moderation cue.
Akismet doesn’t seem to catch it, because it doesn’t look like spam at all. Perhaps I should just remove the words KaylaX and MarlaX and approve the comments because hey, they’re nice comments after all.
Still, I wonder what’s the deal with this.

I’ve been getting these too… i guess they must be spam for something. I delete them all.
