Cleaning up and moving on
Well, after many years of frustration, I have finally removed my profile from Classmates. They tricked me into joining way back by referring to their site as a "free member driven" site, and this was back when that sort of thing was more common, but every time I tried to do something beyond entering personal information that makes their site desirable to go to, they wanted money. Okay, that's annoying, but not the end of the world, but since then, they have become increasingly aggressive in their spamming, and I'm sorry, it is spam, they go beyond what is reasonable, and a while ago I made the resolve to never pay them a cent, I simply do not want to encourage that type of behavior- but now they send a couple emails a week saying, "oh, go do this", but on arriving at the site, I can't do a thing without "upgrading". Well, Classmates- screw you, remove my personal information and get the hell out of my life once and for all. I would highly encourage anybody else with a profile there to do the same!
On a kind of sad note- my images are gone from the Google searches- after a couple months of furiously respidering my site (you should see my logs), I have disappeared from the index, at least the higher entries I had, oh well, the shifting shape of the WWW... I'm still getting a couple hundred hits (at least) a day, so someone out there has managed to find me, and you know who you are, even if I don't- so email me and let me know who you are... And Mark Repuski, my old friend, where are you? Fred made the plunge and dropped me a line, you can too- it is me , I swear ;-)
