  • Blog problem?

    Late last night I saw this blog at the top of the chronological list:

    Freeze Out The Thieves: The Saving Freak

    Today, that entry remains at the top of the list and I think the time of the entry keeps changing, so that it appears to be the most recent entry.

    It seems to have straightened itself out. Now I'm thinking that the blog somehow got the time stamp of 12:somethin' p.m., so it kept sorting toward the top until that time was passed. But if it did somehow get the wring time stamp on it last night, that may represent some sort of glitch, too. We cannot put our own time stamp on our blogs, can we? Because if we can, someone could intentionally and artificially occupy the top of the chronolgical list.

      There has been a repeat of the same thing. Late last night I saw this blog entry at the top of the list. This morning it remains there even though other people have made more recent entries:

      Finally! A Human Being: The Saving Freak

      The entry that caught my attention two nights ago, the one that caused me to start this message, has been removed.

      I do not think the above link even represents a real blog entry as one must go to another site to finish reading it. To me, it just amounts to an ad for another site.

        Yeah I have notice that Saving Freak's blog is only a link to his real one. It also claims that he only started blogging in October and that he only has one entry. That one entry is constantly changing and I think the October start date is wrong too. Not sure what's up there...

          I noticed the same thing. I came on and read the blogs, The Savings Freak being at the top, then I saw a new one on top, I went on and blogged mine and when I went back, TSF was back on the top? Weird!

            I have contacted him and it should not happen anymore - he was playing with the system by repeatedly resubmitting his posts to keep them at the top which I told him wasn't allowed

                  They finally booted him, haven't seen it on anyone else's blog since.

                        Yes, sorry about that. The problem has been resolved.
