Yesterday Google deleted most of VelloHomo's blog, under the usual and un-explanatory reason that it violates Google's terms of etc... Shame on them!
I cannot begin to relate to what is Franco's state of mind right now, and I feel for him. Unfortunately, we can only hope that his claim will find its way and that a fair solution will be found.

Damn...someone bitched. That's usually the way it goes down.
Bummer! I thought they stopped deleting entire blogs.
What sort of thing does he post that someone would be upset? Not familiar.
Nothing more "offensive" than we do our blogs. But I suspect it's been hacked in some way by a third party because some links redirected to crypto-money mining, which seems unlikely from him. It's just a guess but I think that's what google's indexing routines did not like.
Dear BatRedneck
It is a pleasure to greet you! I want to especially thank you for your message when one of my Google accounts was deleted. Fortunately (miracles do exist after all) the account has already been re-enabled.
If it hadn't been for your message, I wouldn't have detected the problem on my blog and probably the next step would have been to delete the blog.
The problem came through an external gadget (those counters, which I recommend not to use on the blog)
Thanks!!!!
Hey Franco,
This is excellent news!
I am so glad this issue was quickly resolved to such a fine avail.
Can you please share the name/type of gadget that caused the problem, so us bloggers can avoid it?
With regards from old-Europe :-)

Franco - Yes, which one caused the problem?
I just started using RatingWidget for their Star Rating, which might be less harmful than a counter.
Please, share your information.
Thanks, Ricko
This is important: the gadget causing the problem on my blog is the "Free Traffic" counter.
If someone has it installed on their site, please REMOVE IT NOW!!!!
Anyway, I recommend not using any visitor counters on the blog. They are always troublesome.
Regards!
Franco - Thank you for the information!
