There has really been a blood bath here lately, huh?
Thanks for all your hard work, guys! You are the best!
XO FFB
why are you telling everyone to back up their photos on Picasa?? Google owns that, no?? My access to that was removed when they nuked my blog! tman, from Tony's Red Flash
Look, I lost my blog to blogger, but it is blogger that allows for it in the first place and many of these failed blogs come and go. If the authors want them back and they have something of substance, they should keep going, like I did, the others are why the "drone" wipes them out. Don't blame blogger, blame the blogs that cause the need for this.
I have said it before. The more people who put in appeals when their blogs is 'closed' the more Google has to employ people to review and the sooner they'll think about refining their bots.
I think it's right, Blogger's popularity is falling with gay bloggers and visitors.
Hey tman from Tony's Red Flash, All uploaded photos to any Google Blog belong to the Owner Of that Blog, Not to Google, they are just providing the storage space!! And the point of "Backing Up Your Photos" on Picasa is exactly for the reason YOU STATED!!! And that was "My access to that was removed when they nuked my blog!" Not only is it important to have current backups of you Blog's Posting, But also of all the photos in Your Picasa Account backed up to Your Hard Drive just in case everything sould be CLOSED BY GOOGLE!!! With Both backups on Your Hard Drive, you can re-build Your Closed Blog from both Backups tman!!!! Blogger Hugs To You (Brent)
Hey Project Pretty Boy 2, while yes, the spamming blogs is the cause of this BIG problem for ALL Blogger's on Google, It is Jeff's and I's believe that the Google Blogger System needs a MAJOR, MAJOR OVER ALL and a MUCH BETTER WAY of stopping Spamming Blogs than what they currently have FOR STOPPING SPAMMING BLOGS. Way, Way to many Blogs are being shut down that are NOT SPAMMING, but it takes so much work and so much time to try to get a closed Blog Re-opened, MANY JUST GIVE UP!!! This is Why Jeff and I are BLAMING GOOGLE FOR NOT COMING UP WITH SOMETHING BETTER to stop the blogs that are causing this problem AND this is WHY WE WILL CONTINUE TO BLAMING GOOGLE BLOGGER!!! Hoping this helps you understand where Jeff & I are coming from. Blogger Hugs to You (Brent)
Very Well SAID STUART!!! Jeff has been trying His VERY BEST to get more and more guys to post a review when their Blogs are closed and many just don't even try!!! But We keep trying Our Very Best Here to get has many Blogs Re-opened has we can and it is starting to pay off, for MORE AND MORE ARE TRYING!!!! Thanks for Your Most Wonderful Comment. Blogger Hugs to You (Brent)
Thank Flying Cocks, we have been receiving more and more e-mails from Blog Visitors that are NOT even visiting ANY BLOGS ON BLOGGER'S any longer only because they are sick and tired of finding a Great Blog that the enjoy only to fine one day that it has been re-moved, other than Ours of course, for the they are now ONLY LOOKING FOR WORDPRESS BLOGS!! Google is for sure turning what was once a great thing on the Net, for OH SO Many, into just a total Nightmare for OH SO MANY!!! Blogger Hugs To You (Brent)
Oops, Missed this comment, But your Right "The New Flops Boy", the blood bath continues and thank You so much for all Your Kind Words!!! Blogger Hugs To You (Brent)
Brent... I backed up my blog when I had it w/ Blogger, but I never knew that Google owned Picasa... I wish I had known that, because I would have saved my pictures in a completely different way than I have-- I could, with painstaking work, re-create them, as they were inserted into my remembrances, but tbh, I can't stand the thought of returning to such a corrupt environment where a gay man's story is considered evil and beyond contempt... After countless attempts, I can't even get a sniff of a response from the mindless cretins who took my blog down-- talk about evil!!
Why any gay person in his right mind who try to use that platform anymore is just beyond me! I spent 45 years in the closet-- I'm not going back, just because they don't respect me.
Honestly, I think the time has come for an all out boycott of everything Google, including gmail, Blogger, Picasa, and whatever the hell else they own- hurt them where it counts. In the diminishing price of their stock as all the bad publicity around their bigotry brings the rising tide of sewerage up around their eyes. Let them swim or drown. I no longer care. I'm at Wordpress now. tman
Right On tman and very well said!!! I'm in total agreement with you and I know for sure that when the day comes and Google shuts down My Wallpaper Blog Again, there is NO WAY I'm going to try to get it re-opened!!! I will continue on over at my WordPress Blog and switch all my e-mails back to Yahoo. And boycott Goggle all together, including Gay Owned Business that Advertise on Google!!! Blogger Hugs to You (Brent)

Pretty Boy, I thought I weigh in on the issue. When I started this blog, no directions were ever given to a Blogger about what to do if their blog was closed due to suspicion of violation of TOS. All Blogger gave the owner was a button to press which said "Request a review". When one pressed the button, one got an automated response that you requested a review. Like an idiot, I kept pressing it for almost 6 weeks until I got so angry I tried to find an email address to contact Google/Blogger. That was when I stumbled on the Help Forums and saw that others had the same problem. I made my review request and my blog was re-opened within 2 days.
My anger was over Google/Blogger never telling me when they shut my blog down, that the button they provided was a red herring and what I needed to do was post in the Help Forums. Was I the only blogger who didn't know this? As I found out, no, I wasn't.
Blogger has made many changes since I started screaming, although I claim no credit for any of them. I want bloggers to know what to do and how to do it. I don't blame Blogger for their final decision, I blame them for making the process extremely complicated and virtually hidden.
I hope this clarifies my position on the issue at hand. Jeff
tman, man, did you hit the nail on the head..."I didn't know....." That is one of my big complaints about Google/Blogger and one of the reasons for this blog. With Brent's fantastic help, we are trying to provide information to folks who use Blogger, G-mail, Picasa, etc. Until one has a problem, all is fine. When a problem comes up, many folks don't know where to go or what to do. Hence, this blog.
My personal blog is at my own domain and a trusted server. Yeah, I'm paying for it, but it's worth it to me. I do take some malicious pleasure at having this blog on Blogger!
Jeff
Thanks Brent, I'm sure about that: no more gay blog on Blogger.
Blogger closed AbiGay blog, now is http://abionthecloset.blogspot.com
;-)
thanks Jeff... I wish you well and hope that they show you more respect than they did me- I still haven't heard a word, and did try to post to the help forums at the beginning, but, you know, the whole idea that they have treated me like a criminal... hell, wait a minute! Even a criminal has SOME rights! Actually, they treated me like something to be exterminated... less than human, and all because I wrote about the life I led as a kid growing up in the closet and trying to serve my country at a time of war in a military that was as homophobic as Google has turned out to be! How degrading to be classified as 'not meeting their community standards..'
What exactly are those standards?? Should I go through aversion therapy and prove to them that the sight of a naked guy doesn't arouse me?
Maybe I should whitewash the story of my life or hide it for another 45 years while gay kids jump off buildings or step in front of moving trains because they have no sense of self- worth.... Just because it would meet their 'standards'.
I think not.
I'm done hiding from bigots, and making excuses for those that sow such hatred behind the thinly veiled precepts of a corrupt organization, because they can! Shame on all the gay people that work for them!! They have no backbones and are destined for the scrap heap of history, like all their straight counterparts that tolerate them at Google.
This has to stop! Anyone with serious ideas about putting an end to this, I would love to hear from...
love, tman @ Tony's Red Flash... tredflash.wordpress.com
@ TMAN Tony, starting next week, I will be posting small vignettes about blogs or blog owners which have been affected by being closed down. Would you allow me to use part of your most recent comment above as another vignette? I would use your own words as well as add your new blog addy.
Let me know. Jeff
PS Glad you have a new place to post your writings!
