I’m due to be booted in 72 hours according to Entrecard

Well, well.

This may be one of the last posts I make as a member of Entrecard. It seems that if you even mention the new ownership in a post, they start looking for a reason to boot you out. In my last post, I made mention of the new ownership in a non derogatory fashion, letting you know what I could find out regarding them (which wasn’t much, I might add). Today, I find this in my Dashboard:

“Please place the Entrecard widget visibly on your blog within 72 hours. Not displaying the Entrecard widget visibly will result in your site being deleted.”

I know I’m not completely blind and I know my Entrecard widget is clearly “visible”. I also know that on any given day, around 150-300 of you drop on said widget on a daily basis. I also know that not only do I drop on many of you on a daily basis, but I also touch base with many on you by leaving a comment from time to time. Maybe not every day, but on a regular basis. Now, is that not what Entrecard is all about?

So, I go to the Entrecard blog to leave a comment. Guess what? I can’t leave a comment. Interesting, I think

So, apparently I only have 72 hours from today before I get booted, so before that happens I ask this question:

Is there anyone else who’s said something about the new management and gotten a nastygram from Entrecard?

Anyways, should I indeed get booted from Entrecard, I’d like to take this moment to personally thank each and every one of you who’s dropped and/or commented on my blog. I’ve made some good friends here and I hope that I don’t lose contact with you.


Just to let you know, my new blog will be featured for a week over at PJ’s Prose starting tomorrow. I heartily encourage you to visit her blog and show her some EC love.

That’s all I got for today.

    I noticed you signed up to Publicity Wheel and saw your first post regarding Entrecard. I’m sorry to hear this… hopefully we can provide a clear communication path between all members through our service. Welcome aboard!

    Thanks for dropping by, Mark. It’s interesting to note that Entrecard has never had an issue with my widget prior to this. Since my bounce rate is relatively high at 77%, I like the widget below the fold to try to maintain some stickiness on my blog. I guess that’s a problem for them. Thank you for the welcome, I really appreciate it.

    Nope haven’t heard anyone have problems yet for mentioning any names. I will keep my eyes open and if I see it will let you know. Already dropped some entre love on PJ! Hope you guys are doing well. Happy Monday!

    The “Publicity Wheel” ad is loading on top of your Entrecard widget immediately hiding it. Perhaps that is why the EC moderator couldn’t see it. Anyway, I tried dropping on it, but not sure I was quick enough.

    Actually, my entrecard widget was located in the left sidebar, below the fold when I got that message from Entrecard
