Okay, really quick question...

I have received 2 comments on my stories and when it shows up on my home page, there are weird symbols all over the comment. What does it mean???

Is it spam??? Or is it something I shouldn't worry about...

I need help!!!

Thanks a bunch! I hope everyone's doing amazingly!

Weird symbols... is it Cyrillic characters or wingding font?

It's Russian bots, then. If you translate them they probably won't make sense.

Oh... is there anything I can do about it??? Or should I just delete the comments and the block them???

Yeah, the best you can do is block them. They're not real people most of the time. If they were, they'd try to write in roman letters so you could at least UNDERSTAND THEM.

Oh, jeez. I have no idea what that could be. I hope that you figure it out! ♥

I think that it's bots, like boheme06 said. I think that I've just decided to delete the comments and block the page. I hope that they aren't real people... :(

Thanks for trying to help!!! I really hope I figure it out too.

From what you have described, I highly doubt that they are real people, so don't feel too bad!

Yeah, I mean, the comment could be real, but I don't know. I'll just delete them to be safe.

You could report them too. They're spam accounts and they're really annoying. When one of them comments on my entry, I go to their profile page and report them to LJ. :)

That's good to know. I'll definitely do that the next time one of those pages pop up on my page. Thanks! :)
