WTF?!?


For some reason, some mean, nasty robot thinks Swatchy's blog is a spam blog!? Wah! I've filled out the form requesting a review, but it says it may take two days to get it back. (The blog is still there, but I can't post to it.) I'm not a spammer. Do you think I'm a spammer? Do you think Swatchy is a spammer? Is this new? Are other people having this problem?

If this blog goes silent, it means that there's some blogger robot that is out to get me...

Oh... and another scary thing? If you didn't request the review in a week, they'd *delete* the blog!!! What if this happened while you were on a two week vacation? Or you just hadn't checked in in a while? (Some bloggers *are* sporadic, after all.) Would they be able to undelete it? (I suppose so, since google never throws anything out, from what I understand...)

Ummmm...wtf?!? is right! Only a week to request a review??? Can you import Swatchy's blog somewhere else so as to protect it from being deleted at Blogger's whim?

Jeez. Do you think it has something to do with the trademark symbol in the title? I don't know what else would set off the robots...

That's the only thing I could think of as being potentially suspicious. (Unless you count CFS links? But we don't have an excessive number of those.) Since I've requested a review, it shouldn't be deleted. However, had no one noticed, it could have been. :(

Okay, this may have nothing to do with it but - that annoying blogger nav bar that we all have at the top of our blogs has a "flag" option, that is awfully close to the "next" option. I could easily see someone accidentally clicking the wrong thing - but I don't know if that's the kind of thing that can cause this to happen.

But I'll be waiting to hear what happens next.

That thought did occur to me too.
