Ok, with a public blog, I get the small amounts of spam. I have set the Comments section to have me approve any entries. I promise that if it’s decent, I’ll approve it. If it’s odd, I’ll still approve it. However, here are some of the spam I get…

All people deserve very good life and home loans or term loan would make it better. Just because freedom bases on money state.

Sure, but what’s with the grammar? It’s one freakin’ awful run-on sentence. If I was doing a ‘blog attack’ for getting people to my site, I would make sure my grammar was good. What’s even better? It’s from SONYA Mccray. What’s Sonya’s email? jennifermartinez@mail15.com.  C’mon Sonya, what’s up with using a different email?

And, the site doesn’t exists. Amazing marketing strategy.
bestfinance-blog.com

But, this is the better of the spam I got. This one, i think was sent from Melmac. Alf must have been responsible for this one.

Huh?!?

Who’s it from? chkyhssrmdc. Their email, if it’s from the earth? dbkpui@zwozfn.com The website?
gggczzxekpql.com. As you can guess, it doesn’t exists as well.

Is it from another country that uses a different keyboard? Again, maybe my website has been accessed by aliens and they’re offering me some help in formatting or even some opportunity to expand the rawl.ca website to make it universal? Again, I’m not quite holding my breath.

And my favorite? It’s from an essay writing service. This is an internet company that will sell you an essay for university or collage, and promise that you won’t get nailed for plagiarism.
Ok, I was past that stage when I was in University, but I can see the temptation. Hopefully university students who are considering this have some basic grasp of grammar, not like Sonya McCrae, who I swear, was the copy editor for this site. The comment in my blog was,

Someday you will see a reliable assistant such as formatting service, and you will be able to understand that essays completing can be as complicated as think. Masters can be able to manage with it fast.

The site? primewritings.com. It does exists. Check it out. It’s a well put together website, but upon further inspection, you find some interesting things.

The first line in their Website?

Do you wish to buy custom essay online because you feel you are stuck?

Hmm…. to me, it’s a non-native English speaker trying to sound technical. Ok, not bad, so far. Much better than the ESL-drop-out who emailed me. And if your curious, it’s from, Cecielia25Ballard. Her Email is ladyblacklisa@gmail.com.

I am a big fan of the “About Us” section, as it gives me an idea of what I’m dealing with. You want to have some confidence in the source you are using. So, what are they about?

With good amount of years spent in writing, our writers keep coming up with premier quality material that is written after various researches and dedication. The essays developed by our writers are written by keeping in mind the needs of each and every student so that more and more students are benefited and are given customized essays which are totally different and superior quality from general essays.

I find this quote hard to digest. I read many things, from fiction to non-fiction; instructions to manuals; Research papers to Newspapers. I find that this quote really odd. Again, I’ve worked in Taiwan teaching English and I have had heated discussions about English Grammar. Sure, us Canadians do speak a little different from our British counterparts, but we are still quite British in our style. But speaking the language from birth, I am proud that I can spot wrong grammar from a distance 20 paces. Granted, I may not know exactly why it’s wrong, but I know if it’s wrong. Some English learners think they have English mastered, and will argue nuances of the language with a native speaker. At times, you need to allow the native speaker to be right. I’ll get in trouble for this point, as I’ve met many people who’s grammar is atrocious.

Just as a side note: Just becasue you’re a native speaker, it doesn’t mean your grammar is good.  But I’ve noticed that the longer you’ve been living in Canada (generationally), the worse your grammar is.  Is it because you think you’ve ascended some moral high ground that allows you to not have to speak properly?  I’m not sure…..

BAck to my main point:  If I was the type to pay for an essay from the internet, I would first do some research on the site.  A site that seems to have a basic writing issues may not be place I would want to buy essays from.

And, if you’re interested, I’ll write your paper…for cheaper than what these clowns have.  Which, here is what they say on their ‘Price’ Page;

At the PrimeWritings you can buy really high-quality, unique and free from plagiarism papers. You can buy essays, buy research or term papers, buy thesis, buy dissertation, etc. We’ll complete your order exactly on time, and you’ll be our returning client because we are the top-quality custom writing service

“At the PrimeWritings…”  – Seriously?

“You can buy really high quality…”  For a writing service, would you really want to use “Really” this way?  Really?

“We’ll complete your order exactly on time” – Isn’t that what “On time” means?  Or, maybe they meant that they would really complete your order exactly at the time?

Spammers; please, please, please, have the decency to have a copy writer edit your material, especially if you’re going to charge people for work.
