How to un-link damaging links coming to my post.

  1. I have a nemesis out there who has written horrible things about me on his blog. He has linked to my post from his. How can I break this link? He does not have a wordpress blog. Thank you.

    The blog I need help with is prosperousindividual.wordpress.com.

  2. The site linked to your name: http://www.prosperousindividual.com/ is not a WordPress.com blog. If you are asking about a wp.COM blog, please provide a link, starting with http://

  3. Acually someone linked to one of my posts from their blog. The title of THEIR blog post is "michael shoesmith is an idiot". I see it every time I go to stats. How can I get rid of it. It's under incoming links. To be honest it's quite defamatory.

  4. The wp blog that I'm referring to is http://www.internetpastor.wordpress.com

  5. There's no way you can stop someone from linking to your blog.

    (And there's no way you can avoid harsh criticism when you make unfounded assertions such as "evolution is a myth", "Dawkins is a lunatic", "atheism is a religion" and the like.)

  6. You can no more prevent people from linking to your blog than you can prevent them from pointing at you in the street. If you were to set your blog to private, they could just say "he's a controlling person who's afraid of the TRUTH" and that's another no-win situation.

    If what he's saying about you is false, just keep blogging. His own links to you will serve to dilute his claims.

  7. Also, an insult is not defamatory.

  8. To panaghiotisadam - I don't appreciate your brand of "help". Go away.

    To raincoaster - thank you

    To tellyworth - please look up the word "idiot" in a dictionary before saying it's not defamatory.

    To all... I didn't get the help I really wanted except to show that these forums are useless. I shall look outside of wordpress.

  9. @prosperousindividual
    Sheesh ... I visited your blog and confirmed that what panaghiotisadam cites above is the truth. You insulted others by making ignorant, outrageous, and unsubstantiated statements. When another blogger linked to your blog and sent the same insults you hurled out back to you, you then arrived here crying like a big bawl baby. When you didn't hear what you wanted to hear you got nasty and insulted everyone in this forum community. You are among best walking advertisements for becoming an atheist I have experienced online.

  10. It's not defamation if it's true! LOL!

    But then "truth" and "reality" seem to be very flexible for some people.

  11. @timethief: Check the other blog too:

    This OP engages in flaming over there, then complains... It's bad when someone calls him an idiot, but it's ok when he calls Dawkins a lunatic. He doesn't like my reply, so I must go away. It's technically impossible to prevent linking, therefore these forums are useless. Love it!

  12. When a donkey brays in the blogoaphere there will be those who choose to stumble, digg reddit, and mixx and the whatever out of his post. Thatt will of course, will put his ignorance, arrogance and hypocrisy attitude on the front pages of all the social networks. Love it!

  13. Please also be aware that after the OP Didn't receive what they wanted to hear they wen't ahead and started this thread "People are being abused in these forums" which I had to move to the off topic section because the thread was posted in the support forum. *sigh*

  14. @t3ck
    Why publicize that here on the front page of the forum?
    Why give this person who has insulted everyone and then has the audacity to pose as a victim center stage?

  15. @TT, That wasn't my intentions I was just letting the other members of this thread that was insulted by the OP know about the thread.
