Subject: Why so long to unlock my 3-year old, 3 million pageview blog?
I can appreciate the efforts that Blogger has taken to bring down
these truly awful "spam" blogs that steal content from sites like mine
and use an aggregator to automatically create their own content while
post a bunch of ads around it.  This is despicable behavior and indeed
should be stopped.

But on Tuesday, April 15, 2008, my popular health and weight loss blog
called "Livin' La Vida Low-Carb" (http://
livinlavidalocarb.blogspot.com) was identified by the Blogger robots
as one of these "spam" blogs and I have not been able to post anything
new in five days.  Keep in mind that I blog every single day, several
times a day...so, needless to say, I'm discouraged and my readers are
scratching their heads wondering what happened to me.

If my blog was new, I could understand the concern by Blogger.  But
I'll be celebrating my third blogiversary on Monday with over 3
million pageviews in that period of time, so I would consider my blog
a veteran blog that shouldn't be put through this kind of needless
scrutiny.  Again, I sympathize with the problem of "spam" blogs, but
penalizing the people who are creating quality content by preventing
them from posting for days on end with no communication is NOT the way
to handle it.

Blogger, please do something about your system by having a speedier
response to those of us who are wrongfully targeted as a "spam" blog
when indeed we are not.  THANK YOU!

Well, it takes a long time i guess for popular blogs.

Even though you may not know it, there are evil people in this world,
and do you know the potential money value of a 3 million page view
blog?

So sometimes actually, it takes a shorter time with newer blogs than
ones that are more noticed.

Thinkin about it:D

I agree this is just wrong...if they are going to shut down this many
blogs on a computer's say so...they need to be ready to IMMEDIATELY
correct those who follow the correct notification procedures.  All
they have to do is take a quick look...and I don't except the excuse
that it takes man power to do it.  If they are going to make a sweep
like this they need to be ready to reinstate those blogs that are not
spam immediately upon being notified.  I've NEVER heard of such a
gross abuse of trust.

They need to at least take a look at a blog before shutting it down. I
can't believe they did this.  I'm just boiling mad...and to compound
things as usual in this computer age...you can't even talk to a
person!!!!

Best of luck in this mess.

Not sure if this is how to reply and ask for help, but this Blog IS
NOT Spam?!
You've got to be kidding.  Just one look at this blog should
clarify that this is NOT spam.  Isn't that why we depend upon humans,
rather than brainless code to make these judgments?  Hello~~ CAN A
REAL
HUMAN LOOK AT THIS IN A TIMELY MANNER.  Please, whoever
is the human in charge here, please take a look!  And please
reinstate
this blog.  MANY OF US GET GREAT ADVICE AND SUPPORT
FROM THIS BLOG.  All us other humans out here will greatly appreciate
you... Thanks.

This is definitely not a spam blog. This blog provides information and
support for thousands of people following a low carb eating plan.
Please reconsider your decision to block this blog and open it as soon
as possible.

I have read this blog for several months now. Jimmy's site is a
valuable resource for those of us trying to change
our lifestyle to one that will improve our health. It's a shame that
someone has lead you to believe it is
spam. I think that his site and others that offer good advice are
being targeted because his "audience"
are desperate for ideas to help them. So unscrupulous people are
scamming bits to attract readers to other
sites. Please unlock Jimmy's site. Thanks for your kind attention.

Dear Blogger Admins:

Please take a look at Jimmy Moore's "Livin' La Vida Low Carb" Blog! I
think we all understand the type of blog you're trying to prevent, but
having such an influential, inspirational, informational blog offline
for over a week is frustrating for not only the Blogger himself, but
also for his many fans. Jimmy Moore's blog is NOT the type of blog
you're trying to screen for, which will become obvious as soon as
someone from Blogger takes the time to look at his site. I hope you
will soon be rectifying this problem!

Jimmy's blog is not spam.  Google should, as a common sense practice,
review blogs that are rated as spam instead of relying on a computer's
"word" for it.  Computers are fallible!  This is just wrong.  I look
to Livin' La Vida Low Carb as a source of objective information and
research on low carb eating plans and it is unbelievable that Google
would simply let this continue.  Unacceptable, Google.  Get a clue.

Dear Google Blog Human Monitors,
Please hurry and reinstate Jimmy Moore's Blog.  I have read it every
day for almost 3 years and it is absolutely NOT a spam site!  Jimmy is
doing a great service to a very underserved group of people.  Without
his research and contacts most of us would still be laboring under
many misconceptions about Low Carb Living.  We need this blog
operational.
Sincerely,
The Soapmaker

I have been reading Jimmy's site regularly for two years. He has
never, ever spammed me or sent me a single unwarranted message in that
time to myself or anyone that I ever heard of. It is an extremely
popular blog, frequented and supported by increasing numbers of
licensed medical professionals as well as laypersons. His forum was
subject to a very aggressive hacker attack, along with the identity
theft of his paypal and bank accounts this past week. This may have
been instigated by industries he criticizes, and was reported to the
FBI. It is very possible that Bloggers' own system was hacked as well,
as this was a sophisticated, coordinated and widespread multiple-site
attack. I implore you to re-instate his site in good faith. Kevin M.

  Hey Blogger Folks!  -- Jimmy Moore is nothing even close to Spam.

We realise that you have a difficult job to do sorting out the con
artists from the legitimate sites but I can assure you that Jimmy's
Blog is purely legitimate.

The Liven La Vita Low Carb Blog with Jimmy Moore is the flagship of
The Atkins Low Carb Dieting community.

He gets a lot of hits because he has worked relentlessly to provide
the low carb community with all of the current studies and information
available on the web.

He also does an enormous amount of writing and broadcasting on his own
with hid podcast and YouTube videos.

He's making money but it's well earned money providing free as well as
paid to click links.

He stands as a credit to the effectiveness of the web as well as
Goggle in providing valuable information for we dieters and overweight
and health conscious people.

His is the main hub in this very important arena.

Please put his site back up.

Thank You
Tom Bunnell
