Flag of Censorship
Have any of you notice the "Flag this?" button at the top if the blog page? (I removed it from mine, actually, with the help of a code I got from Infinite Monkeys) It is for often anonymous, random people to "flag" your blog as "offensive"
According to Infinite Monkeys:
"The "Flag?" button is a means by which readers of Blog*Spot can help inform us about potentially questionable content, so we can prevent others from encountering such material by setting particular blogs as "unlisted." This means the blog won't be promoted on Blogger.com but will still be available on the web..."
Thanks, Jules, for pointing this out to me....

I never really objected to the nav bar, it was better than the ads that would show up before the nav bar started. I have not been happy with the idea of the flag though and was happy to dump the whole thing. I should find out how some people seem to be taking out just the flag button and leaving the rest of it though. At any rate, thank you for sharing the link and discussion!
No problem... I had not even noticed the flag button until Jules pointed it out to me... By the way, I also like the code entry method of getting rid of spammers, so that annonymous people can still comment...
