Hi - Not really a question but more a cautionary tale for other newbies.

DON'T RENAME YOUR FOLDERS AFTER SUBMITTING!!!

Doh! I can't believe I was stupid enough to do it but I did. I realised my mistake when I found my domain on the blacklist. I'm frantically reuploading my pages into the old folder to try and get my listing reversed.

Just wanted to let you all now how easy it is to fall onto the blacklist by making one stupid mistake.

I got your Blacklist appeal - I'll get you off of there today.

Hi GG

My domain is still on the blacklist. Does it take a while to come off? Excuse the pun!

ahh, that sucks man.

I've got so many free sites out there that if i reboot my server i worry about the whole 1 minute of down time... renaming stuff would be a big no no.

Hi GG - My domain is still on the blacklist. I dont' know if you took it off and it went back on after the problems with Webair (that only lasted half an hour) that happened today.


Could you let me know please.

thanks

Which domain is it? (my memory sucks)

Does it show "active" or "inactive" on the blacklist? (everything remains on the list for future referance, but "inactive" blacklistings are not banned from submitting)

Thanks GG. I took another look and it is listed as 'inactive' so I guess that means it 's ok.
