Blogger #1 leaves a comment at the website of another blogger. He makes an on-topic point, and includes two relevant links to back that point.
Blogger #2 sends a bulk unsolicited email to many bloggers seeking link exchanges.
Which one is the spammer?
Answers under comments, please:

Blogger #2. But then I would say that, wouldn't I? I'm well briefed.

Well, unless this is some massively obscure and devious trick question, the spammer is Blogger #2. Don't know whether inside knowledge (i.e. being a recipient) reduces the validity of my answer, but by all sensible definitions, #2 is the villain.

Someone who sends unsolicited bulk mail to many bloggers begging for linky love is clearly a spammer.Those who can't see that are looking at the world through industrial strength blue tinted lenses.

Well it must be #2 because #1 is clearly a troll ;-)

#2 obviously.No, wait, #1. Definitely #1.Or #2.But it could be #1. couldn't it?Is there a third choice?*ad nauseam*

Number two sounds like a spammer, a rather flouncy one at that.
