Has my blog been deliberately marked Spam/Mature by people who don’t like me?
-
I noticed recently something strange about my blog (http://janganserakah.com).
It used to rank in the top blogs (position 20s to 50s) in my languange (bahasa Indonesia) but now it has disappeared from that list. Not only that i find that when i do a search from http://id.wordpress.com/ i can’t even find any of my post there.
I wonder if this is because my blog has been incorrectly marked as spam/mature? If it is, please have someone correct this mistake as my blog is about investing (especially value investing) and economy topics.
In one of my post, (http://janganserakah.com/2008/07/08/inter-metro-fund-imf-khayalan-tingkat-tinggi/) i made a warning against an online High Yield Investment Program (HYIP) SCAM in my country called Inter-Metro Fund</stong> (http://inter-metrofund.com/). This scam offered the victims with unrealistic offer as much as 2% per day. (please read about HYIP SCAM on Wikipedia)
This SCAM has a lot of member and thus the post drew attacks from them. I wonder if one of them mark my blog as mature or spam and caused my blog to be removed from the top blog list and also made it impossible for others to search my blog on wordpress.com?
I don’t know if anyone from Support understands Indonesian languange, but if it’s possible, please take a look at the links i put above to confirm what i write.

Ah, then my question should be rephrased as “has my blog been reported as mature or spam by people who don’t like what i wrote?”

Probably, it happens all the time. But that doesn’t matter because staff review all spam/mature reports and decide when action is necessary.
The issue in this case probably has to do with your linking patterns.

i’m new to blogging, tellyworth. Can you please help me and explain what you mean with ‘linking patterns’?

http://faq.wordpress.com/2008/07/15/my-post-doesnt-show-up-in-the-tag-list-what-gives/ – item 4 in particular.
Sorry for being obtuse but spammers read this forum.
-
I looked into the link you gave me, (item 4 in particular). Don’t think any of my post had that problem…
Anyway i just hope that this problem can be resolved soon. Thanks for the help tellyworth.
PS: I don’t find your answers as ‘being obtuse’ at all :) In fact it was quite enlightening.

If tellyworth says that item 4 is your issue, take his word for it. He is the Key Master.

hi raincoaster!
since two days ago, ALL my comments on WordPress blogs are marked as SPAM ! My friends have to check their spam daily and they’re complaining about their other WP-blog friends who’s comments got into spam too! why is that? My comments have never got into anyone’s spam, it’s the first time. and hardly ever post links with my comments…
tks

It happens sometimes when Akismet tightens up during a spam attack. Pretty much everyone goes through it at least once.

I am also having the same problem. I cannot comment on wordpress sites.
I have tried safari, firefox and explorer.
