Yahoo, Google And Others?

[ravenswoman]

I have noticed Yahoo and Google among the list of active users. You can not click on them to get further information as you can with other active users. Why is that? No way they monitor things like a team forum is there?

Depending on your search criteria, you WILL sometimes see links to posts in these forums on both Yahoo & Google. In other words, yes, they 'monitor' the forums.

Google seems to link our forum a lot when I do football searches. I pity the people who read us as a source of information.

So true! Shifting threw some of the nonsense would probably scare them away.

Wanna make your eyes pop? Go to google or yahoo and search for your "handle" you use on this website. Everything you've ever posted will come up. If you use the same name on other forums it will all come up too.

I use this handle on many websites and boy do I see it all laid out in front of me. But I barely see any Ravens website postings. I actually see my postings on the Chiefs and Titans boards more.

It is downright scary how many pages are dedicated to my other handle I use on others boards--I need a life lol Google is parked on this site
. Ever since the fiasco last draft day is why we insist all rumors be sourced, Bleacher Report does not count, or clearly marked as rumors.

Hard to believe, it took me about 2 years to come across this site lol.

I actually wrote a couple thing a while back on there. Even was asked, if they wanted, could they syndicate it. My stuff was more how I personally felt about some rumors, tried to be a little funny as well. After a while I realized how much of the writing over there was hyperbole and conjecture, rehashed over and over again, sometimes parroted right from sports radio, I gave up.

The Asmough/Gaither thing made us look really bad and hope to never have a repeat of that mess

Never again. Sometimes posters get offended when we demand a source for a rumor, but after that mess, I'm standing firm. It has to be reputable, too, none of that BleacherReport stuff. They started a rumor, it got reported here, and then they "sourced" us to blow it all to heck and back. Ugh. I'm still burning over that one.

I'd rather think of it as Google and Yahoo are Raven fans.
