Why are spammers posting?

  • Why do spammers post here? It makes no sense to me. I am here to learn and share in the spiritual life of a group of like minded people. I do not understand what sales people think they will gain here. If I want to buy a pair of shoes, I either go to the shoe store or use an online search to get what I need. But I have yet to understand some people who treat this site and ordination process as some kind of joke or way of getting their "product" out there.

    There has to be some way of filtering out this kind of thing. I know how to report them but how can we keep them from taking an ordination so lightly? This is so precious to me and I am so grateful that the people I meet here take me seriously; even when we don't agree on spiritual topics. I know everyone here just wants to be heard and listened to instead of the way the majority of the world treats us. Now we have to put up with all these spammers every day popping up on the site. I say a prayer and light a candle for them tonight. They are missing something so precious and it is within their reach. May our Creator, Heavenly Father, Mother Earth, Spirit Guide or whoever else they seek be near and reach out to guide their way and help them understand that so many of us here would help them find something so much more valuable than money. OK, I had my say and I know they will never read this but I feel better having written it. " Fly me away to the dark side of the Moon....and meet me on the other side" Dream Weaver by Gary Wright
