5637 - Blogger warning to me

When I went to post something yesterday for today I found this at the top of the posts.


I had no idea what this was about nor could I figure it out from this message. Well, it turns out that blogger sent me an email also. And this was about our friend LJ, AKA Loony John. It was post number 4650 from January 2020, 2 1/2 years ago! Blogger suddenly had the need to restrict viewing to it. Here's the letter...

So you can still see it. You just have to hit another button.

The only reason I can figure out what blogger's problem was, was that there are some 4 letter words that LJ said on his websites. So I eliminated any potty words and resubmitted the post. We'll see what happens.

And what's funny is that LJ (LJ are you listening?) deleted all the links I found that were his. All that research for nothing! Darn!

But the biggest problem that really ticked me off was the post number 4650. I used it TWICE! Not that I haven't done that before but I usually find them and fix them. Too late for that one.

!Update from blogger! Before I even posted!

That would do my head in - which doesn't take much these days. I am glad that you were able to sort it out.

Sue - I should have kept a copy of the stuff I deleted. Oh well.

River said...

What a lot of fuss and bother.

River - Over a big bunch of nothing from 2 1/2 years ago.

You CAN fight City Hall! It's interesting, though, that it took so long for Blogger to find it, or for some random reader to complain about it. A few years ago, I got a notice from Blogger telling me I had to remove a photo they said I had used without permission. The offending picture turned out to be a widely-distributed photo with no apparent use restrictions. I sighed, took it off the post, and all was well. The offending post was, at the time, about a year old.

That post was before I found your blog, so of course I had to go back and read it.

I'm glad you were able to sort through this mess. It's just frustrating that we have to. I think blogger looks are emails and issues once every 2 years. They read 5 and never return.
