    Hi, I am aware of a smear campaign against a friend of mine, a person in Poducherry (Pondicherry) in Sth India. He is Sraddhalu Ranade (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuJbQRTiagE) – a very altruistic and noble person involved in educational research but in dispute with the Aurobindo Trust of Poducherry over institutional issues including a case he is supporting against the Trust who are accused of a cover up of sexual abuse which resulted in the recent suicide of 3 women. If you google his name – Sraddhalu Ranade – the first ranking results are invariably vicious smear wordpress blogs which are almost laughably hysterical but utterly dishonest. What do you suggest? Can wordpress have a look at these blogs since I think they must break the wordpress rules re abuse. Thanking you, Antoin

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    If your friend has an issue with any blog content that violates our Terms of Service then he or she need to act on that. You cannot do so on their behalf so be clear on that.

    These matters are not discussed on public support forums available to everyone with internet access as this one is.

    Tell your friend to see here:
    Please read these so you know how to proceed:
    http://en.wordpress.com/complaints/
    http://en.wordpress.com/abuse/
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/disputes/

    NOTE: This thread will be closed as your friend`s communication will be via email directly with Staff.

    I’d like to add that your friend must first must determine whether or not the site is a free hosted WordPress.COM blog or not. Many people assume WordPress.ORG installs are hosted by WordPress.COM when they aren’t.

    2) Your friend must determine whether or not the blog is hosted at WordPress.com. If he or she sees a link that reads “Blog at WordPress.com” in the footer of the blog (linked to http://wordpress.com), this normally means that it is hosted here (although external blogs may place this in the footer, if they choose to). Also, if your friend is logged into WordPress.com, you will see your gray-colored admin bar at the top of your screen.
