Weird... Google search results - Security & Legal Issues - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

bounty29 · 04-25-2007, 07:30 AM

I just did a search for a panasonic whisperfan, and the very first link is to a thread here. That's no good, IMHO. It probably doesn't help that my post is in the middle of the screen when you click the link, but still. Do we want that? Do we have a choice?

Why are we before all the retailers and such, isn't that kinda like flagging these products as "used by marijuana growers"?

https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&s...an&btnG=Search

I don't even remember posting that...

I'm so sick of people making stupid sarcastic jokes about people being paranoid. It was just a surprise when I searched for something in Google and up popped a post by me on these forums.

b10narybud - You're probably right, I can't imagine they get too many visits. I bet half of them are from that thread.

Does google arrange search results based on the most common link selected?

I know this is an option is most out of the box engines.

Google is too good! I mean who searches for that POS anyway?

I know I don't want my handle coming up in any searches so I feel where you're coming from.

There was a thread regarding this (about a hydro site) in the growers forums...

I goggled my name and my guest book came up. Stuff does make me paranoid also. I went back and did an edit of my posts. Just to make sure I didn't give any info out that I thought to be harmful to me. I recomend everyone do this. There are some here that give their geographical region......not me anymore. I also edit pictures for finger prints and bar codes on products.....everything I can find.

You want to freak out some more? Google your (bounty29 icmag) name and then click on "repeat the search with the omitted results.Most your posts will come up. Which I think SUCKS!

just for the record, i clicked on your link and you spelt it wrong. When i clicked on the button for the properly spelled word all of the companies ect. came up for a bunch of pages. The reason is that you had the same typo in your post and search so thats the first thing that google pulled up was the same spelling, then similar/related links
