A curious plague has broken out at the Lastwear Journal offices: comments and messages by non-existent people. They are odd individuals, these folk without physical being. They often seem to have opinions about the items posted on the Journal, and then loose the thread; they ramble on about other topics and often blather meaninglessly. Almost as if they were the ghosts of ideas once partially formed, but are now drifting free in the Aether that is the interwebs.
The writers are, of course, S.p.@m-bots. We dare not speak their names, for it calls them onto our site. Even using the S-word calls to them. Rather we shall call this kind of post as "luncheon-meat", which is what the original product was, after all.
As an Historian Archivist of the LastWorld, we are familiar with the notion of ideas having a life of their own. If enough people believe something, no matter how little foundation in reality it has, the idea can grow and take form; have impact on the real world. In a curious way, the luncheon-meat writers are demonstrating an underlying principle of the LastWorld: If enough people believe it's real, it becomes real.
These little luncheon-meat writers are having a positive effect, however! Their level of English (And Esperanto) usage is very low: they are primitive, mindless little creatures at best. Because of this, if someone wants to have their comment posted, they must write intelligible, properly spelled, grammatically correct English. Otherwise, our Luncheon-Meat Removal Officer will simply expunge them! Please continue to reply to our journal entries, writing in clear, Standard English (or Esperanto) and be assured your words will be heard!

Hmmm. I ought to try that policy where I work, while I shop, and while I'm on the web. (Attention! There will be no more talking to me unless the sender demonstrates basic grammar and punctuation!)

Hmmm. On second thought, I suspect my plan will backfire long before I stop playing the phone bill. Nuts.
