OK, this was odd...

I know people have had odd reviews at ff.net, but up till now, mine have been pretty normal.

But this was strange:

I thought at first it might have been rot13, like they use at the "Mark Reads" site to avoid spoilers, but I tried it there and it's still gibberish. What the heck? Has anyone else ever had one like this?

Wow. Maybe they were so overwhelmed by your story that all they could manage was random keyboard slamming? Can't say I've ever had a review like that one!

[rhapsody11.livejournal.com]

I think its a spam review... *looks at it again*

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

It doesn't even look like keyboard smashing. If the words in the first line weren't so long I might think cipher, but ... no, that's just weird.

[ellynn-ithilwen.livejournal.com]

Ah, spam... *sigh*

[mews1945.livejournal.com]

spam. By all means, I wouldn't click on any link in that review.

wow. It's a new Middle Earth language and they're fluent! ;D

Talk about reducing people to speechlessnes...

[grey-wonderer.livejournal.com]

Looks like secret code of some kind. I don't post on FF.Net so I've not seen anything like that before.

[lindahoyland.livejournal.com]

Utterly weird.I've over a 100 stories posted on ff.net but never a "review" like that.

I thought it was strange.

[dreamflower]

Well, I would have, but there were no links in it.

[dreamflower]

Yeah, my first thought was "rot13" like they use in "Mark Reads" to avoid spoilers. But I tried it, and just got a different set of gibberish.

[dreamflower]

But, there was no link?

[dreamflower]

There weren't any links in it at all. If there had been I would have thought of spam.

[dreamflower]

AHA! Perhaps it's an off-shoot of the Black Speech!

[dreamflower]

It would be nice if I thought that's what it was.

[dreamflower]

I've only been posting there since the end of summer, but this is the first of its kind I've seen.

I thought it was weird. Now I known it was weird!
