I'm Back

I felt like I had to delete my blog a few weeks back, this was for reasons I can't share. After I deleted my site, A porn site took it over. I had to find it and turn them over to the blogger abuse team.

This is the address for help:

Blogger was able to restore my entire blog; I will blog about this soon. I had no idea if you delete your blog that it doesn't disappear. I guess there are sites just waiting to take over your blog for there sick pleasures. I couldn't believe the nasty pictures that came up under my blog name. The worst part about the whole thing is, it is my little boy's name, not mine. I felt sick that I had done such a thing to my little boy. I know I didn't mean to turn his site over to such people but I wish I hadn't reacted without thinking first. I guess I got a little scared and freaked out! If I would have read my own daily devotions, I would have turned this person over to God instead of playing right into his hands. I alway try to be so careful as to not give out to much information on this blog, you just never know.

I will never just delete my blog like that again!

Please don't any of you ever just delete your blog! If you need to disappear for a while, you can do it by just closing your profile. I promise all of you, I have done a lot of research regarding this the last two weeks, while trying to recover my blog from that awful porn site.

I am so sorry that any of you had to view those pictures. Thank you for your friendship, I promise, I have missed all of you very much. I felt like I had lost my best friend. I can't wait to meet all of you in heaven some day.

Barb asked for this information,

Hi Barb,

I'm sorry I told everyone I would post this information on my blog and
never sat down to do it. I had to find the cached. I found it at
http://technorati.com. If someone is link to you, you will have one of
these accounts. I found my blog post underneath the site that took it
over. Mine so happened to be a porn site. I felt sick when I told my
little boy I deleted our blog and he started crying telling me he gave
people his blog address so they could look up line flyer. I could just
see all those little 10 year olds exposed to porn.

When I got my blog back everyone that links to me I put everyone that
link to me as a technorati favorite. I don't know if they sent you
information once I did that or not?

If you can get me her site address I will look to see if it is on
technorati. If it is we can get her blog restored to her. We can pull
the information off my blog as to who to turn the site into and they
will restore her blog to her.

I pray this information helps her. I am so glad you emailed me
concerning this. I never know if the information I put on my blog is
useful so sometimes I just fail to follow through with what I say I am
going to do.

Love,

Lori

You're back!! I'm glad. It's amazing what people do on the internet. I guess they have nothing worth while to do. Hope it doesn't happen again!

dot said...

Lori, I've missed you and was hoping you would find a way to get your blog back. This has really made my day!!

Barb said...

I've been so upset, Lori. I tried every way I possibly could to get back to your site and couldn't get past the horrible people that took it over. I'm so glad you found it and recovered from it.

I agree with J. Andrew that it's just sad that some people have nothing better than this to do.

And I agree with Dot, too. This made my day!

Lori said...

J. Lockhart and Dot,

You have no idea how happy I am to be back. If I could tell you the story of why I had to delete my blog you would understand. I will have to share what happened to my blog so people will no not to ever just delete your blog. It doesn't delete but someone take it over. In my case it was a porn site. I couldn't believe it when I went to look up my blog to make sure it was deleted just to see some very nasty pictures.

Reviekat said...

Lori, so great to see you back!!

Barb said...

I thought I'd run back over here and tell you this, Lori. I'd email you but there's no email link in your profile.

I just went into bloglines to resubscribe to you and that other web site, the porn site, is showing as a choice for subscribing. If you have bloglines, you might want to contact them and ask them to remove that feed. Just thought you'd want to know this.

Lori said...

revee,

I am so glad to be back! I'll never do that again. There was a person outside of my family that I needed to
make them go away. It is such a long story but I am glad I got my site back.

Barb,

I don't have blogline but I'll put my email address back on my profile now. I had to make myself disappear for a few weeks.

Carole Burant said...

Welcome back Lori!! I was wondering what was going on with you blog...now it all makes sense but what an awful thing for you to have to go through:-( You've been missed my friend!! Hugs xox

Jim said...

Hi Lori -- I'm glad you're back too! And I feel so sorry for you and Bo and the others. I just clicked on the other day and it was awful. I guess others did too.

I had tried to see if you had a new blog but nothing computed. Thanks so much for your comment.

Your new blog looks nice, were you able to keep all your old posts? I had wanted to study your creation series better. I might teach a creation class sometime, not too soon. You had some excellent resources on those pages.

Anyway I really do admire you for all the things you do and the fine example for living you and your family are.

Thanks for the visit and you are always welcome! I will link you again, right now!

Lori said...

Pea,

Thank you so much and I promise I'll never do something like that again. I need to learn to think before reacting. Sounds like another great daily devotion.

Jim,

Thank you for this very nice comment.
Yes, I think all of my post have been restored to me. Please let me know if something is missing.

Blessings to you and Mrs. Jim,

Lori

Lori, I'm so sorry this has happened. Thanks for filling in all the gaps. I was wondering what was going on. You must be so relieved to have this terrible situation behind you. PTL!

Lori said...

Lori, I am sorry too that you had to go through that....and I am blessed you are back.....I have deleted blogs a couple times, and now it makes me wonder about them.....I have never tried to go back to them again....anyways...so glad you are back....

Linda said...

I'm so glad you're back Lori. I've been wondering. I clicked on your site one night and saw where it was heading and quickly clicked back. I'm so sorry you had all this trouble. I've been a little concerned lately about posting too much information or family pictures. I'll look forward to learning from you. I think it will be a help to all of us.
