Blog entries & comments

How can someone who is no longer in my friends/contacts list be able to comment in my private blog?
I saw that user’s friends/contacts list and I do not see myself there either,so how can they still comment on my blog entries?

What am I missing here…??

I had a few people in my list who I then removed.I thought they wont be able to see my blog entries although I was seeing their’s assuming that they would have to remove me too from their own lists.
How does this work?I never knew my blog was visible to people I had already removed.

Re: Blog entries & comments

Is that person an admin or CM as by accident they probably landed in your blog?

Could be that particular blog was made public and the person commented during that time?

Is the person part of your contact? (not friend but just contact)

Re: Blog entries & comments

That person is a CM.It might have been said before,but do all CMs have access to all blogs,allowed or not....??
I have never made any public entries in my blog so I am sure that it was not a public one.I have noticed comments from this person a few times but at first it did not strike that I had removed them from my friend/contact list.They used to be there but a few months back I kinda cleaned up y list and thought I had removed them.
That person does not seem to be in my friends or contacts (or so I think).

P.S....It is nothing personal against anyone.But I am still trying to figure out how they were able to repeatedly comment,once they were removed.

Re: Blog entries & comments

I apologize on behalf of that CM. All CMs used to have admin rights (though I am sure that after recent upgrade, they probably lost the rights) and sometimes if you are looking at recent comments in the right side panel , you cant tell whether the blog is private or not and they could accidentally enter and comment.

I am not justifying the act but if he/she wanted to snoop around, he/she would not be posting a comment to make his/her presence known.

Again I apologize, and I will request the CMs to be more careful in the future.

Re: Blog entries & comments

Oh and if you removed them, being CM - they would have no way of knowing that they are removed, cause they still might be able to see your blog. I request that you send the person a polite email telling him about the removal and asking him to be careful.

Chips, I think it was me. I'm really sorry...I thought I was on, but I realized immediately that I was there due to my admin status. Please accept my sincere apologies.

Re: Blog entries & comments

But now that I think of it, I didn’t make any comments…maybe it wasn’t me, :hmmm:, but still, sorry!!!

Re: Blog entries & comments

TLK...Thanks for the explanation.Though it makes sense and I realize that the person might have not realized that they were no longer in there,hence they left the comments.I now just feel I should have been careful posting whatever I did.

Niksik...It was not you.And if you had not said it,there was no way for me to find out without any comments left there...:)
