I feel that the most important thing about blogging is the placement of fullstops

Give me your link, let me rate

The failure of correctly placing a fullstop will cause you to be punished by google, blacklisted by Alexa and you shall be classed as an outlaw by the blogging community

    may as well alter it and see how many fall for it
    1. acousticguitarist
      please replace all your stops with the the following code

      if(stop != go){
      then stop = .
      }

      but you got me

    I'm curious what you mean by this. Are blogs without full stops automatically weeded out because they're suspected of being spam? Some of my posts have few or no full stops.

      Your repeated use of the stops is google compliant

      the placement of your 7th fullstop needs to be 1 mm to the right
  7. Kiwipulse
    mmm Is it very useful?

      the stop is very useful to birds that can't fly :-)

    "The failure of correctly placing a fullstop will cause you to be punished by google, blacklisted by Alexa and you shall be classed as an outlaw by the blogging community"

    LMAO
    1. MeghnaK
      You're blacklisted since fullstops are not put properly
    2. acousticguitarist
      No, I'm not bored

      I'm just pretty excited because it looks lile I will have a job with one of the top Internet Marketing companies in the country I live in....and this means endless opportunity working with very innovative and successful people
    3. acousticguitarist
      Meg


      your fullstops are square
  10. lettershome
    Love a good prank. Way to go! :-)
  11. Svelmoe
    Hehe - good sense of humour
  12. kath
    you almost got me redpanda...almost!
  13. thebigandyt
    I've replaced all my full stops with decimal points as They look pretty much identical to the casual reader.
    1. acousticguitarist
      But google knows, you can't trick it.

      Also beware of { } curly brackets as the google bots see it as

      Bracket Do This Bracket and will erceive your post as bad javascript

      The other issue is the use of a semi colon at the end of a line is perceived as the end of a line, so watch that one

    2. thebigandyt
      I don't know how i'm going to remember all this, I've heard a rumour that the googlebots don't work at the weekends, i'm going to post only on a saturday so they can't check content before it's published.
    3. acousticguitarist
      We're sending one right over
    4. thebigandyt
      aw no, there's bots and spiders all over my page now. They've swapped some of the full stops around I know for definate fullstop#14521111 was in the first paragraph now it's been replaced with fullstop#14521112. I'm extremly worried. Do you think we should reboot the internet?
    5. acousticguitarist
      Yes but you'll have to back it up first...use windows BU program backUpWholeWeb.exe
    6. thebigandyt
      How do we get everyone to log out first?
    7. acousticguitarist
      I'll write a script, copy to the desktop and watch the pretty colours

      if(logggedOn = True){
      Then LogOFF;
      else
      LoggOf Forever
      }

      Note, it will not run on Windows Vista
    8. thebigandyt
      i have to go now anyway, so thats me logged off. Keep up the good work:)

    no clue what this is about but curious how mine does

    LOL...this is a prank?
    1. acousticguitarist
      you'll need to swap all your dots with stripes
  16. adoptedjane
    I love a good prank too...especially when its harmless
    Keep up the good work Acoustic, see you on my next follow lol
  17. Grooveycraft
    go for it, will be interesting

    1. acousticguitarist
      There is a problem with the fact that the x and y co-ordinates are not the same. I'd delete them all straight away
  18. legbamel
    The full stop is my third favorite punctuation, after the interrobang and the semicolon. Actually, I only like the semicolon because it gives me an excuse to use the word FANBOYS on my blog. I get a good snicker out that every time. legbamel.blogspot.com
    1. acousticguitarist
      I don't mind tildas to tell you the truth
  19. TheMrs
    You need to draw me a picture, because I'm lost. What is a full stop? I fear both my blogs are really 'bad' since I don't know what you're talking about.

    *where the hell is the embarrassed smiley when you need one!*


    Edit to add: Not sure if this is a prank or not, but it seems that happens a lot to the people who aren't in the 'know'.
    1. legbamel
      "Full stop" is another way to say "period". Ooh, look, there's one now!
    2. acousticguitarist
      We can't draw a picture, you'll need to zoom in

    @acousticguitarist
    Yes, please. I would like to know if my usage is Google compliant. onecoolsite.wordpress.com

    "I'm just pretty excited because it looks like I will have a job with one of the top Internet Marketing companies in the country I live in ...and this means endless opportunity working with very innovative and successful people"

    I'm so happy for you. Congrats!
    1. legbamel
      What are we, chopped liver? [huff] I just realized that I forgot to congratulate you, AG, in my excitement over punctuation. Congrats on the new job!
    2. acousticguitarist
      No, i'm vegetarian, I would not associate with chopped liver.
    3. acousticguitarist
      TT yours will take Time to do

      ha! ha! ha! Times up red panda. Where's my report? *rotflol*
  24. rearvumirr
    WOW...wish someone would explain it to me!
  25. markstoneman
    Translation: "full stop" in some English tongues equals "period" in North American English (as in the punctuation that goes at the end of your sentence). If there's a pun involved, though, it's beyond me.
  26. taur
    hi ... thanks so much for the very prompt reply to my thread - www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/have-you-been-penalized-by-google
    .. have yet to digest what you mean cause my son just woke up and have to attend to him for now... I'll read your discussion again later. Really appreciate it.
    1. acousticguitarist
      careful, if you digest too fast you get the hiccups and that will affect a few of your full stops
  27. chitgoks
    first things first.. what is a full stop? i haven o idea what that is
    1. acousticguitarist
      The dot at the end of a sentence. Google is very serious about syntax, are you?
  28. BennyGreenberg
    help - I have no clue what this all means

      Ben. This post came about because some people were rating blogs but had not said what it was they basing their ratings on. So I had a mad moment and created this post.

      @redpanda
      Thanks for the hilarity. I've been enjoying it all along. The problem is that my sense of humor is so dry that people don't get it or even get that I've got it when I do get it, if you know what I mean and, somehow I think you do.
    2. acousticguitarist
      Send me a joke that makes you laugh and I'll see if I get it
  31. stilesjp
    creams aren't working. pills aren't working. praying to the little fairy of stops isn't helping at all. in fact, she set mosquitoes on me.

    Please help.
    1. acousticguitarist
      John, I've considered it ver carefully. I think the issue is your plumbing, if you get that cat out of your sink everything should start working again. It's probably a mix of cat fur and stops blocking the sink.

    That was my point, I figured out what you were talking about by reading.
    1. acousticguitarist
      Oh Ok, It did catch a few people, but ender got me
    2. legbamel
      I assume that was because she used no full stops. Sorry - couldn't resist. I won't post to this one any more. (Unless it breaks 250 posts. Then I may just have to say something.)
  45. inmyredhead
    Yes, ender, I like dead things is that it? Lol
  46. inmyredhead
    Yes, that's what was so unbeleiveable. I saw that it did and yet they just kept coming.

    (no offense intended) lol
  48. inmyredhead
    To bring life to a dead thread; to post in a thread that hasn't had any new posts for a considerable amount of time.

    Damn you beat me


    So i guess I do like dead things. Tell it to my Chinese friend SueMi :-p

      Peace be with you and best wishes for happy blogging

    heehee. yes, TT got what i meant by necro, necro, necro.

    1. acousticguitarist
      I'll be right over

      I'll do the commas too
    2. acousticguitarist
      Gosh a problem with question mark at the end of the post. Google bots don't like that.

      The dots look ok and are reasonable well hidden by the dark background. In fact most of the text is reasonably well hidden on the background

      I didn't resurrect this, I got a shock when I saw it again

      But cif peoplev want their stops optimized, what can I do?

    Well we've all got to die sometime.
