The Spamming Problem
Note: The following post contains phrases or words that may offend sensitive readers.
You can’t trust anyone these days, it would seem: Everyone’s a spammer. Now, I don’t want to sound all knowing, but I know that all spam messages are related to sex. Spam is probably the single biggest problem of the internet. In fact, spam existed long before the internet (the post box is only SO big), but since posting became an ineffective way to make money, spammers targeted a person’s two biggest needs: His email address and sex.
But it would appear that even private message systems on popular video sites are being targeted, making the life of the user that much more difficult. I think I might have a solution to the growing problem. Here are my thoughts on what can be done:
- Firstly, my email provider (GMail) should put an option in the options menu that allows me to select the languages I can read. All messages that are not 90% that language should be sent directly to the spam folder. If I cannot understand the content, I probably don’t want it. Most of the time, spam messages for me are in a foreign language.
- If the spam filter detects the words “penis enlargement” or “Viagra,” then dispose of it. Why on earth would I want those emails. At the very least, give me an option to set those on.
- Everyone should just ignore spam. Just send it straight to the spam folder. Why on earth are there still people that either reply hatefully to a spam message or actually buy into the rubbish?
- Finally, I think that if someone is caught spamming, then the punishment should be so severe that he will no longer have the ability to even type a badly written add.
Back to the topic. Some of those suggestions are a little impractical, I’ll admit, but this is something spammers should be aware of:
Spammers, I hate you and everything that you are. Now that I have your attention, I would like to say why I hate you.
I don’t NEED Viagra. I can understand if you have…problems…but that does not mean we all do. I also do not need to have sex every night with a random Brazilian girl. You can have sex and get aids as much as you want, but I don’t think I will take that chance.
For all of those scammers who want to make a quick buck: I hope you die. You should die a painful death and then spend out the rest of your afterfile in eternal damnation and servitude. I hope that your supreme deity shows little to no mercy on your soul. Why do you want to cheat like that? What about the rest of us that need to work for money? Of course, all the blame cannot fall on you. The people who fall for your stupidity are your equals.
Spammers, if you really need love and attention so badly, then let me be the first to tell you that there are other ways to get it. I just hope you die painfully. Have a nice day!
That said, I will end my rant.
