Back from where, you ask? Well, it seems that as soon as I finally made the effort to start my blog, I was confronted by Murphy's law. A couple of nights ago, I came online to make my second post, but upon logging in, I was greeted by none other than...
...an error message, telling me that my blog had been locked for a possible violation of the site's terms of service -_-
I was a bit baffled by this at first, to say the least. I looked into some of the links that had been provided in place of my normal user interface, and it turns out that my blog had been mislabeled as a spam blog.
Thankfully, the links gave me a convenient place to send a request for a manual evaluation of my blog. I used these links to my advantage, and it only took them a couple of days to review my blog and reactivate it.
It was a bit frustrating at the time, but honestly, I'm not too upset about the whole ordeal. I perfectly understand the need to deal with spammers in any online environment, and unfortunately, spam detection is not flawless. Indeed, I'm quite thankful that they were able to resolve the issues in such a timely manner. Some sites out there will suspend your account, and then take forever to address the problem, or just ignore it altogether and lock you out permanently. So here I am, after a relatively painless process, ready to start blogging again :)

yayy you're back.
do you think my myspace wasn't working for the same reason?
anyways i'm looking forward to reading some of your sick yet beyond hilarious stories :)... that is.. if you're planning to use your blog for such purposes.

Thanks for the comment :)
I doubt that this was the reason your MySpace went funny, that was more likely somebody hacking the account. It's not the most secure website, to put it mildly...
I'm sure some sick stories will emerge in this blog soon enough. It's a multi-purpose blog that doesn't really focus on any single specific topic, and knowing me, something absolutely appalling (though amusing nonetheless) is bound to appear in the near future. I will not disappoint you ;)
