Yeah, so it looks like someone has created a spambot that creates wordpress.com blogs and automatically starts comment spamming other wordpress.com blogs.

The blogs are almost all “name###.wordpress.com” with comments of “nice work, bro” or “nice work, dude”. When you click through the blog text is non-english and has links to other splogs.

I’ve had around 10 get through akismet in the past few hours

So if you see one, then click on Blog Info >> Report as Spam on your dashboard

And if you click on the links on their splogs you can usually find like 5-6 more.

It’s like hunting easter eggs, without the chocolate.

Me too. Damn, this is like that “I Love You” virus, where you feel left out if you’re so unimportant you’ve been overlooked.
