Question for Jon

April 30th 2009 00:51
Jon,
tonight I read a comment from a pal that said she has tried to get subscribed to my blog numerous times, all to no avail.

This is at least the third person to say this to me, initially I thought it just a glitch, as I did not get any other complaint.

This has obviously been the situation for well over a year now, probably closer to two years at least. It may explain why many pals have stopped commenting on my posts.

Why is this happening?

Can, and will you, fix it?

Often I also don't get notifications that someone has commented on one of Fog's posts after me. I do get the notification of a new post though.

Thanks for taking the time and trouble for commenting Trace,

especially since the person to whom I directed this question hasn't bothered to respond...

I will post today and we will see what happens then.

By the way, when you get the time to respond Jon, another question;

Is there a way of checking who has subscribed up to my site, so I can check on who else may not be notified of my posts?

You're welcome, Fog. I hope it helps.

I've just discovered that my blog has been given away without me knowing...I'm most upset.

Hi Trace,

HUH???!! How come your blog was given away, without you knowing? How is that possible? Didn't you get an email asking if you were continuing with your blog or not? I did ages ago when I slacked off.

You should ask Jon or whomever, as to what has happened and why..

cheers

HI Fog

I didn't get an email or anything, I just happened to notice someone else was posting on my blog. Now I have no access, no domain, nothing. It's nothing against the new person, it's about not being told. If I had known, I would've been able to do something.

Also, I had been trying to post for about 10 days but didn't have access so that seems even more unfair. Now I only have access to Tracy's blog and when I tried to post two posts yesterday, they didn't come up. Am I being censored?

I've emailed the complaints dept as as well as Jon. Just waiting now. I hope they can do something, I'm very upset.

Thanks, Fog.

Hi Trace,

I hope this works out for you, it is incredibly unfair and unreasonable for Orble admin to do this.

I wonder why no one is answering your inquiry?

I wonder why Jon has ignored my direct question to him, on this post?

He answered another post on this forum just the other day.

What is going on, (or not going on) with Orble?

cheers

and Trace, you will have to start a new blog I guess.. when you do, email all of your pals.

cheers

Hi Fog

Thanks so much for your support. I just looked at the dates of my last post and it was the end of Feb and the blog was taken over about 10 days later. So it wasn't even inactive for the 60-day period. That infuriates me even more.

I hope you get a reply to your question soon, I don't know what is happening.

Thanks again,

Tracy

It gets worse, somehow there are a whole load of new posts on my blog while I was also posting. This means the new owner had access to my blog while it was still mine.

I AM HORRIFIED.

THAT is incredible....it leaves me speechless... what on earth is going on here?

Jon,
if you are reading this, PLEASE give an explanation, as it is starting to freak a lot of people out, and some are planning to leave, good writers with popular blogs. Well, Tracy's blog was popular and a good earner too... besides she is one of the nice people here..

Is it a malfunction or some automated thingy? What is going on Jon???

cheers

Answers.

It usually follows the word question - and it sounds like Tracy has a few of them and Fog has asked politely . . .

I would be keen to know what the story is - surely its is only a shortcoming . . .?

Hi MNG,

Jon has finally naswered Tracy and is looking into it. Seems it may be a pooter error not warning her of the impending shutdown of her blog.

We can only hope the new guy lets her take back her old blog.

cheers and thanks for the supportive comments.

Hello MNG

Jon sent me a message on Monday saying that he will ask the new owner if he minds moving to a different blog. He also said I should've received an email before anything happened. So it's looking a bit more hopeful.

Fingers crossed and thanks for your concern,

Tracy

Are tags space separated or comma separated and can you use quotes in tags?


Is it

"good tag" "bad tag" "awful tag" tag

or

"good tag","bad tag" ,"awful tag", tag

Michael2,

not sure what you are getting at... oh wait on, if you mean posting the key words to link up your current post, then yes, put a comma between each new word.

Hi sam sall,

I just tried using your link, it won't connect, but reducing it to the basic address does work, so I would email Jon directly for this problem solution, as it may be a system error on your blog.

cheers
