The Blogs have been a target for scams.
We have had several bogus members registering, then posting garbage/spam blogs. Those blogs were removed and the "members" were banned.
However, in a new development, one "member" joined, and within an hour, posted over 1,000 bogus blogs.
- It will take at least a full day to clean them up using the tools available to the admins
- Or I need to spend many hours figuring out the data structures and developing the appropriate SQL to remove them - and hope I don't break the system in the process.
- OR... We can simply remove the blogs altogether.
They weren't used very often, and I suspect they were rarely read. And - anything that would/could go into a blog could just as easily be a forum post, and would probably have more visibility.
So - I have removed the "Blogs" from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Let me know if you need a copy of one of the older (genuine!) blogs, or if you need to know where to buy Viagra...
