40 minutes for nothing

by Volker Weber

I know, labor is cheap in Poland. And you have a full Class C subnet at 62.233.222.0. But I am sorry to say that those 40 minutes of work were gone in a few seconds. Why don't you get back in the ... whatever business you failed in before? Don't try to make "Ed Fisher" redundant. It's his job to post comments to be removed from vowe.net.

Don't try to make "Ed Fisher" redundant.

It's the way it goes Volker, every kind of job eventually gets out-sourced... :o)

I've noticed an increase of this sort of thing. Can't see how it pays to sit and input this trash manually - as like you say it takes seconds to remove.

I added a "link throttle" to my site - anyone posting more than 2 links gets blasted - unfortunately we have to do stuff like this to stop these morons!

Well, I don't know whether this story is told in English speaking countries as well, but back home in Germany I remember this kid's story (is it a fairy tale? I don't know) of "Alibaba und die 40 Räuber" (Alibaba and the 40 robbers). If this guy has 40 helpers at hand, it should be now big deal at all to enter quite a number of comments to a substantial number of weblogs. Whether that gives you anything yet enought to live off for 41 people... I don't know but considering the returns on banner advertising (which keep suprising me any time I hear a figure) it might well be enough.

Ragnar, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves is known in English speaking countries. At least in Hollywood in many many movies ...
