Is This an Abuse Problem?
-
I was tag surfing today and under the tag “dolls” this blog post came up: gfvross.wordpress.com/2007/06/26/guitar-hero-iii-details-revealed/
It has nothing to do with dolls or any of the listed subjects. I can’t even find the word doll in it. Perhaps I’m overreacting, but something doesn’t seem right here.
I know this is dishonest, but is it an abuse issue? Should I report it to WordPress.com? Thanks in advance.

If you can’t even find the word “doll” in the post and I can’t either we can conclude that this is an inappropriate tag used to get attention. The word “doll” can of course apply to toys or to women who are being viewed as sex objects.
It’s called “tag spamming” when bloggers use a multitude of inappropriate categories/tags. Some bloggers habitually do this and, as we bloggers assign our own categories to our posts, not much can be done about it.

Report it please. Hover your mouse over some of those links within the post. It’s a porn splog.
edit: Reported.
reedit: I learned that trick fairly quickly over on my own wpmu install. That’s about 50% of my own splogs.

I intimated the same (it’s a porn splog) by telegraphing this to you:
“The word “doll” can of course apply to toys or to women who are being viewed as sex objects.”
Then I waited for you to swoop in and “moderate”.
Was that the right thing to do?
Or would you have preferred it if I had made the report? -
No, it’s just random nonsense keywords. Look at the category list along the left hand side.
Wondering why it’s still up actually. Lloyd must be backlogged.

Thanks, everyone! Since it’s already been reported, should I still report it just in case?
And thanks for the warning, Drmike. I’ll avoid those links like the plague.

Can’t see the edit link for the first post. Tired of digging around source for the link.
*sigh* Gimme a sec…
