Just a notice

I think a week or two ago, when the word 'eunuch' was put into google search, second result was www.eunuch.org with some certain related sites beside. That kind of order has been I think for two or more years.

Today there was no www.eunuch.org found in the first five pages of search...

Thats unusual I think. Is it somekind of censor working somewhere or what? Googles new policy? If that is the case, then this tendency is littlebit alarming. Another attempt to control an internet. If there is EA admins involved then I could understand..

E.

I have googled the same and got eunuch.org as first result. Second was from wikipedia and so on. (that was google.ru). Logged out of google - so this wouldn't affect results - got the same.

Cleaned out google's cookies (it tracks you, and tries to personalise search results) - got the same.

So may be it is a glitch?

PS. checked other search engines

Yandex - suggests eunuch.org while typing, gives it as a second link

Yahoo! - gives eunuch archive as the first link, but doesn't suggest

rambler - knows nothing about eunuch.org (at least on first 3 pages)

bing - same - doesn't give eunuch.org as a result.

I just tried it, in google the Eunuch Archive did not come up but on yahoo it was first, maybe I should google more.

Google is continuously changing and improving its search engine algorithms. Thefraj, who works as a search engine optimization professional, first noticed that the Eunuch Archive had dropped out of at least the first 1,000 hits on Google for the term "eunuch" yesterday morning. He peeked behind the scenes and found a few lines of code on the Archive front page that may be the reason that we were dropped.

A letter pin-pointing the possible source of the problem has been sent to the members of the Archive crew who have the power to change the coding. If this does fix the problem, it will still take a while for Google to discover us again.

If we're not back at the top of the Google search within a couple of days, we'll need to look farther for the solution.

Could this have anything to do with the German letters?

While Germany is CLEARLY capable of screwing up anything it associates itself with, I am extremely confident that we should BLAME CANADA!

In a word, No

Hear hear! I absolutely, positively agree most lyphatically that we need to blame Canada for more things! Ever since they messed up my childhood by cofusing me so terribly, introducing this "Canada Dry" ginger ale stuff... Then if that wasn't enough, the sent us "Captain James T. Kirk." They just never know when enough is enough, they sent us the late John Candy (the world is a lesser place without his brilliant humor).

Recently, I rented a Canadian movie... French title was "Le Grande Seduction" or something like that. That movie was totally horribley enthralling, I had to watch it more than once and I was still laughing at the way the whole villiage got together on their "Grande Seduction" of the young doctor... sorta like "Waking Ned Divine" only in French.

Yes, I would have spent many many many more hours pulling weeds and keeping my terrible yard cleaner if it were not for all the horribly entertaining stuff that those devious Canadians send our way. So.... it is clear, when someone looks at my delapidated home, unkept yard, and neglected old jalopy that I drive, and they ask why? Well, it is CLEAR, BLAME CANADA!

AND of course if that fails

WE

Could

Yes we Canuks are a crafty bunch. For years our carefully planned invasion of the grand old USA has gone unchecked. Our writers and actors now comprise most of your entertainment industry. Slowly but surely feeding you our culture, buying vast tracts of real estate, and making yourself laugh your asses off. But it's not enough, no. For now the church of the holy goalie Tim Horton is now spreading across your land. A church where parishoners do partake of the holy communion of coffee and timbits and yea do the cries of rroll up the rrimm echo across the land.



Well something like that anyway.
