100% true, I messaged one of them asking why they spammed so much, he replied: Oh sorry it wasn't my goal to gain attention I listened to all the songs, really. -.-

I never get these... I guess my Songs are Not good enough for Spam xD

Maybe I helped but most likely I was quite useless. Comment on my tracks to show me how it's to be done! Please?

I get that once in a while, but really not a lot. I guess my songs are too good for spam :3

Ever participated in a Remix Competition where Soundcloud was the medium? That's the worst of it. Never got less than 50 comments saying "check mine".
Oh and yeah, I just got my first "like a B0:55" comment ever. I guess I'll have to move my drops.

Just make completely irrelevant tags.
My guess is that these spambots filters after new songs with a tag like dubstepzzz, bass is so sick, it'll make your prinipal puke, or anything genre specific.
Send it to people who you think might be interested in your stuff, then if they like it, ask them to send it to some of their friends/whatever and the chain goes on.
however in this chain it is quite possible to meet some playprostitutes, but what the hell. comments can be removed :)

I don't want people to follow me if they don't intend on listening to my tracks and enjoying them. If someone is following me to get my attention it won't work...I only follow people I actually listen to.
