      I think it's the BC police that turned me down

      Seriously though I don't see anything wrong with the blog at all. Try emailing them for an explanation or eventually one of the admins will see this thread.

   Hi borzack,
   It's most likely an error. Just send an e-mail. It happened to me once too. It is obviously a mistake, because your blog is fine.

   Might be that there are only 4 posts.

      All we can do on this forum is speculate. We BC members do not make the decisions. I'm thinking like werelax that most places do not allow registry until after 20 or 25 posts have been published. But what we think isn't important. I would recommend emailing Admin and asking for their reasons for declining to register your blog.

      The 1st time they rejected, these are one of the reasons:
      
      * We could not verify ownership of your blog.
      A link back, widget or meta-tag is required to verify site ownership. visit: www.blogcatalog.com/buttons.php for more information.
      * The URL you submitted is not a blog.
      * The URL you submitted is solely for commercial purposes, or is suspected to be spam.
      * Your blog is brand new and/or doesn't have enough content to make it truly valuable.
      If this is the case, please resubmit after you have made more postings.
      * Your blog contains pornographic material.
      * At the time of review your blog was unavailable or there was a typo in your submission URL.
      
      The 2nd time it was rejected, this is the only reason they gave:
      
      * The URL you submitted is solely for commercial purposes, or is suspected to be spam.
      
      
      One of the blog I listed above has only 7 posts (4 of them are not even posts!) and it was accepted...

   I think werelax is right, there is not enough posts, so they probably don't think its old enough yet.

   It's called rejection. It's a part of life and it will happen again, and again, and again.

   Could technically be spam..seeing as how it's all info commonly available elsewhere on the interwebz.

   The reason is simple, the way BC clarifies whether you are indeed the author is by your pasting the BC badge as a widget, which you haven't. do that re-submit and you will be accepted
