[DouggyO.o]

ok well i was just randumly surching yahoo
and i typed in DouggyO.o and there were some posts about me that id rather not remeber, normaly i would just forget about them but if my friends or family found those posts they would be like wtf u did that!?

so is there any way u can take my name off the stuff on yahoo

[redcar]

you could delete them if you dont like them. or unless you want to keep them?

[DouggyO.o]

they got pruned from my diary but there still out there cuz they are showing up on yahoo search

Sorry, we don't operate Yahoo, so we can't remove web pages they have from us. Their spider will have to crawl VT and not be able to find threads for their index to update. On Yahoo's help, they said that they cannot manually make changes to their search index; they rely on automated crawls to update their index.

Wait... so you can't have a rant about puberty and a post about recovering from some dark times, but you can have something that I can only assume is from an H-game as your avatar? I fail to see the logic there. What is even going to inspire your parents to look up DougyO.o? Unless they know this because you use it a lot, I think thats a little paranoid on your part. And also your chances are pretty slim of Yahoo getting that out of their search, and besides if someone saw those threads in the discription on the search page, they could just search a cache of the page, so your boned no matter what. Put your behind in the past :P

edit: its still there i guess i cant delete it i just hope nobody sees that

Doug, it's just as Francis said... We can't do anything about the Yahoo incident. Though this is why you should sway your friends to use Google instead :P

Google caches pages too, my pretty. (http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:cMa3nYmoIVAJ:www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php%3Ft%3D1244+&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1) :roll:

I know that, my friend. But have a look: http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35301&topic=8459

We learn something new everyday, don't we? :headbonk:

Whootness for Google then :biggrin:

[Kiros]

I know, Google is so awesome... And since I'm the webmaster of 4 different projects (the 4th one will start when school does), I'm loving Google's webmaster section :D

I thought it was a secret. project

[DouggyO.o]

thats all good but is there a way to prevent bots from going into my diary

[Kiros]

I thought it was a secret. project

Not secret, private. And besides that, only one of them is private. It's not as if I can't count it as a current one :rolleyes:

And Doug, I'm sorry, but no, not currently anyway. All spiders/bots will go browsing through the forums. By posting anything on VT, you make it public to anyone at anytime, so you shouldn't care if a search engine indexed it if you have posted it in a public forum. If you don't want someone to know about it, don't post it publically.

Though there are some ways around this... I'm just not sure if we should allow that yet - I'll it up to Josh and Francis.
