The spambots are surprisingly clever, in some cases it can be hard to tell if it's a real person or not. I tend to delete posts that don't seem to add anything to the conversation, posts that are poorly written and posts that I simply don't understand. I hope I didn't delete your or any other real human's posts. If so, I apologise. Just know that it's really hard when the amount of spam is TOO DAMN HIGH! </overused meme>

And the reason isn't so unknown. Love as Romance are usually key terms for the always popular Personal Ads and Sex market(ing). Same way a lot of people enter #Love thinking that is a place for something else.
But our spam is rarely related to porn. (Thankfully) It's always just random stuff.

Yes, because the spamming-bot message content/context is not always spammed in related or targeted right thematic places. For sure you noticed how the thematic spam here is also most of the times nothing related to gaming/coding. Most of the bots are totally blind and just to spam whatever the message is.

However certain popular SEO key words are at top priorities in their choices of the first places where to spam. And 'm afraid a Love named domain is always very interesting to be considered and targeted as the first to be marked for spam. It's just a question of preference of popular keywords in domain search patterns. Have a SEO key word in domain url is too way irresistible for a spam sniffer that marks and choice places where to spam.

I would like to think that my posts can be easily read/understood.

Thank you all for the welcome though. :) I'm glad to see there is still life here.

The discussion is really starting to get interesting. Didn't think you guys had it that bad here, I can understand that.
