  Being Marked as spam...
« on: July 18, 2006, 08:20:51 AM » by Raff
Suddenly I've been marked as spam on the main Dvorak.org blog.

I'm not really sure why.  I don't use foul language.  I don't belittle other people or type rude things. 

Sure my comments my be non-sensical or off-color, but I don't think I've done anything to warrant being listed as spam.

My last comment was listed on the blog about shoplifting at walmart.   My comment was

"People actually  buy cds and dvds? I thought they just downloaded them" 

the remark was pulled and now I'm listed as spam and can't  even post.

Whats up with that?  Whats so awful about that comment that it deserved to be pulled and me blocked?

    O.K. heres the rules...  Which ones did I break? 


      Slander
    *

      ALL CAPS POSTS
    *

      Excessive profanity
    *

      Personal attacks on the Editors unless it represents interesting commentary
    *

      SPAM or excessive self promotion
    *

      Off-topic rants
    *

      Repetitive carping from politcos with an agenda
    *

      Ridiculously long posts
    *

      Time-related criticism such as "This is old news and was on Uncle Ben's blog two weeks ago." This has no positive value to the readers and is insulting. Everything on a blog has usually appeared someplace else at some time.

            
   

 

Repeat offenders will be simply blacklisted. Only two have had this happen over a one year period, so it's rare.



Of course it could be just a software error... lol  but that doesn't explain why my post was removed..

Just that a few got Signed in, and started sending.
I saw 2, and sent to Dvorak...
looks like they are tightening the procedures.
