Back to Square One

My blog at Blogspot was deleted by Google’s anti-spam bots. It was mistaken for spam and removed from the net, the URL and all content completely inaccessible to me.

For victims of this blunder, there is a protocol for restoration of the removed blog. I followed the procedure, which includes getting codes from Google texted to your phone, and jumping through a few more mindless hoops, including mandatory reading of online articles that call people in my predicament “whiners,” and  posting in their help forums. Blogger has no tech support or customer service to speak of so users with a problem are to post in these forums where people are rude and dismissive. You can view the forum conversation here. After a full week of my blog and content being lost, I decided to start over rather than sit and wait for something that may or may not happen. This has easily been one of the worst weeks of my life, my emotions ranging from almost psychotic rage to extreme utter hopelessness.

I had a great following on Blogger and really high traffic. It’s very upsetting for me to be forced out. I feel very defeated. Hopefully this feeling won’t last for long and hopefully the fuckers will one day be violently raped with  sandpaper lined baseball bats. Yup, I’m that mad. Enjoy the new blog!
