@ Kathie Thomas: Be sure and check them out and if they are scraping your content, tell them to stop and report them. Unless we all work together to fight against splogs abusing our hard work, we all lose. Don't let them take you down with them. Fight them.

I hate that my dashboard incoming links show only splogs at the moment and nothing else.

I have recently had my content stolen by a splog. All the content there appears to be stolen. Notifying Blogger simply produces an automated generic response. What alternative action can you recommend?

@ Debi:

Thanks. I’ve reported it to WordPress.com, which is different than WordPress, the org. I’ve also removed the link as I don’t want that on my blog.

I also don’t understand what you meant by “I’ve been splogged!” Do you mean that content from your blog ended up on that blog? That is called scraping. “A splog scraped me” would be the correct jargon. Or do you mean you stumbled on the site from search results? Then you just discovered a splog. I haven’t found “splogged” yet in the vernacular, but I’m sure it’s coming.

Ah now I see! I’ve been splogged! On a WordPress.com blog. I don’t seem to be able to find a way to report it to WordPress without having one of their blogs … Am I missing something?
