On to the logs (I think I might just start combining them)!
TyrannicalSalmon
[16:45] TyrannicalSalmon: Hi.
[16:47] Angelle321: I'm not actually sending you messages out of nowhere, though I bet it looks like it.
[16:47] TyrannicalSalmon: Who is this?
[16:48] Angelle321: did you just update your LJ? I know it looks like tyrranicalsalmon is sending you messages but it's just a stupid bot that matches up two people who just updated
[16:48] Angelle321: I think
[16:48] TyrannicalSalmon: Yes...
[16:49] TyrannicalSalmon: I did update my LJ but how did you get my screen name?
[16:50] Angelle321: I didn't. you're seeing my screen name as this salmon one, as I am for you. but neither of us actually has the other's screen name. trust me, it's nothing to worry about.
NoxiousSalmon
[08:39] NoxiousSalmon: who are you
[08:41] Angelle321: I didn't message you.
[08:41] Angelle321: google this screen name or TyrannicalSalmon
[08:41] Angelle321: that will clear it up
[08:41] NoxiousSalmon: i did, thank you.
[08:41] Angelle321: welcome
[08:42] Angelle321: did that help?
[08:42] NoxiousSalmon: yes
[08:42] Angelle321: fabulous. have a great day!
RemarkableSalmon
09:22] RemarkableSalmon: umm....do I know you?
[09:23] Angelle321: I didn't message you. Fear not. google this screen name.
[09:25] Angelle321: did you?
[09:25] Angelle321: it's a bot
RadiantSalmon
[16:22] RadiantSalmon: Hi.
[16:22] Angelle321: yay! a salmonbot!
[16:23] Angelle321: hello?
ExtraSalmon
[19:25] ExtraSalmon: In homage to that which came before us: I say, old bean, have you seen my hat?
[19:26] Angelle321: Yay!
[19:26] ExtraSalmon: I am currently away from the computer.
[19:26] Angelle321: Well when you come back to it rejoice! You've been salmoned!
[19:26] ExtraSalmon: who's this?
[19:26] Angelle321: google salmon bot
[19:26] Angelle321: I didn't mesage you, I swear
[19:28] Angelle321: If you googled it, you probably feel better now
SweetenedSalmon
[19:34] SweetenedSalmon: Get to the chopper!
[19:34] Angelle321: yay! salmon!
[19:35] Angelle321: and a new salmon at that
[19:35] *** Error while sending IM: This user is currently not logged on
UnlawfulSalmon
[20:56] UnlawfulSalmon: The factorial of 42 is 1405006117752879898543142606244511569936
[20:56] Angelle321: yay!
[20:57] UnlawfulSalmon: Thank you?
[20:57] Angelle321: we got salmon-botted!
[20:57] Angelle321: google it
[20:57] UnlawfulSalmon: And who is we?
[20:57] Angelle321: you and I, I would imagine
[20:57] UnlawfulSalmon: Ah
[20:57] UnlawfulSalmon: And who is you?
[20:57] Angelle321: not unlawfulsalmon, as it would appear
[20:58] Angelle321: seriously, google it
[20:58] UnlawfulSalmon: I would if I want working on a paper
[20:58] Angelle321: what are you doing updating your LJ while working on a paper. slacker.
[20:58] UnlawfulSalmon: I updated my LJ before my paper, about my paper thank you very much :P
[20:59] Angelle321: ah. well that's how it works, btw. two people who both recently updated their LJs will get messaged by some sort of Salmon. I never see your sn, you never see mine. I'm actually angelle321, not any sort of salmon
[21:00] UnlawfulSalmon: Okay, that still doesn't help me in knowing who you are.
[21:00] Angelle321: well no. but I didn't message you. so I didn't think you would really be interested in who I am
[21:00] Angelle321: we both just got hit with a bot
[21:01] UnlawfulSalmon: I haven't been on this AIM name in a while so I always forget what sites it's on, I just get confused when people I don't know message me
[21:01] Angelle321: makes sense. I didn't. the bot did. when you're done papering, you should look it up. there are LJ communities devoted to salmon bot chat logs
[21:02] UnlawfulSalmon: What is a salmon bot?
[21:02] Angelle321: it's a bot that sends messages to two onconnected people who both recently updated their LJs
[21:03] UnlawfulSalmon: Ah
[21:03] Angelle321: *unconnected
[21:03] UnlawfulSalmon: ahh
[21:03] Angelle321: I post mine in my own chat log journal
[21:04] UnlawfulSalmon: Yeah, I rarely update my LJ anymore
[21:04] Angelle321: well, I'll let you get back to your paper now and not bug you. g'night!
[21:04] UnlawfulSalmon: G'night, nice talking to you
Lately I've gotten other bots that show up after a journal post but don't have any salmon in the name. The Dobernala78 bot was one of them. Here's another I got last night while I was sleeping.
AbortGhettoBaby: dear crushedglass, legomymalfoy is going to blow up the turkish parliament and kill abdullah gul the president of turkey for the liberation of her fellow pornography traffickers
AbortGhettoBaby: why destroy al qaeda when the biggest terror threat in america is the synagogue down the street?

I kept getting IM's from ConcurrentSalmon. Now I feel kind of bad, since I was yelling at the person on the other end. I thought they were just being annoying O.o

blah
I've been hit with LogicalSalmon and RegulatedSalmon since Sunday, but the odd thing is that I haven't updated my Livejournal in quite some time. I rarely use the site anymore.Plus, I asked the other person when talking through RegulatedSalmon about livejournal and they said they've never had one... or a xanga, since that is what I primarily use.
How strange! Is the salmon bot spreading?! haha

Re: blah
Interesting! Maybe it is spreading. Wonder what it would do to connect you then. Was there anything else you had just done that it might have used?3 years ago

so i was wondering if there was a way to track these bots,
like if you add one to your buddy list, would you see if they come online or not?
