Internet Spammers and Trolls

PaulB on Sep 5, 2011

Another cyber poem.

Image via Wikipedia

Just like The Borg of “Star Trek” fame,

They sweep across all cyber space.

These trolls and spammers:

Pandemic viral plagues,

Trying to sell their

Knock-off goods.

They tease the forum-dwellers

With their subterfuge

And guile.

False avatars surround us.

Like Borg their casualties

Are instantly replaced.

Clone follows clone.

These trolls pretend to help us

With our “faults”

But lead us down the garden path

To Hell!

They reconfigure their defences

No matter what we do.

Even pretend to be us.

Whoever they are –

We haven’t got a clue.

Spammers and Trolls we hate them.

Such a waste of space!

Literally!

Yes.

Complete Disgrace.

So true, Paul. They’ve ruined this forum/site more and more every day, to a point of no return.
Cool poem.

Peace

LOVE it. I wonder if anyone ever buys anything from the spammers?
PaulB on Sep 5, 2011
That’s better people. Yes I have added woefulness to my irksome qualities: that is an in joke there.
