Hi
I've been well placed at google.ch and now been deleted
there. Only a small entry in google.com left. Any possible reason
for that??
THANKS

Several, but as you haven't told us the address of your site we can't
take a look and figure out what's wrong.

There's a very big Google update going on. Give it a week or two and
you may well reappear.

First you'll probably have to explain that this isn't a chat room.

I find this whole situation very amusing. They guy posts without
quoting saying he likes my site, and is then directed to a page on my
site telling him to quote. I wonder if he was just doing it for irony.

Probably. More probably Arne is as pissed of as I am about all these bloody
dingbats coming in from groups.google (present company excepted) who know
absolutely bloody nothing about how usenet works.

Ratbags, all of them. Well, not really, the useless groups.google interface
encourages them :-(

<question>
Does anybody from google ever visit the newsgroups to find comments like
this? If they do and they don't fix it they should have their arses kicked.

Once upon a time, when google was taking over the archive from deja,
someone(s) from google used to read and respond to (at least in
private) alt.fan.dejanews, but I don't know if that was in an
"official" capacity.

There are some google.public.* usenet groups, which I suppose might be
appropriate, but they seem more oriented toward the websearch
functions of google.

I have made my share of faux pas with Usenet, but I avoided many by
first observing a bit BEFORE posting. I wish for basically 2 things for
the Googleites.

1. To peruse the NG first to get a feel for how it works and for the
possibility your question's answer may already be posted, (maybe 5000 times)

2. Just assume that the other folks in the NG /cannot/ actually view
your monitor so we do not get posts like:

<post>
My page looks all funny, HELP!
</post>

 

[Michael Sgier]

Hello
my URLs:
http://sgier.com
and also:
http://shop.sgier.com
both have dissapeared from google.ch
Are there any faults there that I need to optimize??
THANKS and regards
Michael

It's a strange phenomenon (based on what little I've bothered to read
from that class of persons), that those posting from GG show the least
evidence of having used GG to review previous discussion.

I must admit that I find GG (like the dejanews archive which they
gobbled up) quite a useful resource for finding answers without having
to bother anyone else. But their posting interface must be abysmal,
judging from the results that it so often produces. And it worries me
that they seem to be presenting our long-established Usenet groups,
which had existed and matured for years before Google ever existed
(indeed, for many years before I became aware of Usenet myself), to
naive newcomers as if they might be GG-specific web forums. Sigh.

I forgot to mention that i've removed a link from sgier.com to
shop.sgier.com between the body tags. I thought that this could be one
possible cause.

Agreed, I use to use DejaNews before ISP had news, the interface was far
superior GG.

So now i've ditched the frames on the index page and removed
all that wasn't seen by visitors. I hope that's fine now. I
followed instructions that i've found after searching for
google submit site or so.

Google Group users are clueless, and so are the Google team that set
up the interface like a web forum! Please ignore all post from Google
Groups until they learn or begin to use a newsreader.

That's a bit harsh. I'm a Google Groups user and I wrote the page you
