I found this on my Google alert:

I submitted 4 more of my old articles on Sphinn, and their overenthusiastic staff decided to delete them all, because I was flooding the Upcoming page.

I agree, it might look spammy, but that was not my intention. I just had a few minutes spare time, and decided to submit some of my best posts. I am used to stumble, where the upcoming queue is irrelevant, and digg, where the queue shifts in seconds. Sphinn is a more tight, small community, and submissions are slow.

So, sorry. I really am.

But, just for your information, sphinn uses an engine that does not parse the deleted links from the submitted urls database. So the urls are effectively banned. So, don’t submit too much stuff, and also, don’t let your site go inactive for a few hours, because they remove the submission too! This makes your url “banned” as well.

To their defense, the same Mod emailed me that they are aware of the problem, and its on their to-do list. So, Sphinn keeps getting better, and I like it.

And I never submit any crappy pages, its always the articles, and most of them are close to 2000 words.

But getting accused of autosubmitting and spamming Sphinn? Get a life guys.

Or at least say it on something that does not get indexed for the public.

And no, don’t submit this to Sphinn. I forbid you.

Let me rephrase all that: Screw Sphinn.
