Profile Not Available.



Occasionally I try to catch-up with pages that I haven't visited for a while (by clicking on the name of a blogger), only to be met with the message 'Profile Not Available'. Grouchy in Florida, and Maria are two examples that come to mind.

I don't know if there's a particular reason why bloggers should restrict their readership, but it must be very frustrating for them to have a limited number of followers.

May I suggest that people check their settings, and enable access to all; as advised above.

I wish Maria will have a blog someday:)

Has she not? When I click on her name all I get is the above.

Having been victim of a trolling episode more like a stalker last night I am surprised you find a blog let alone a profile of me this morning.

New World said...

The stalker had no blog of his/her own of course and as for profile, well profile wasnt even mentioned.

Maria said...

I do not have a blog Cro so I do not have followers. I do not know if I could write one either; I would have no idea what to write; I'd run out of ideas after two posts. I have no profile but I have revealed a lot of myself in comments here and in other blogs. I hope I am not been rude because I do not have a profile. I know I am entering someone's "home" and the least I could do is introduce myself. I will see what I can do about it.
Greetings Maria x

Maria said...

Thank you Yael,but I wouldn't know what to write x

Cro Magnon said...

I'd imagined that you had a hidden blog somewhere to which I was banned. I think you should consider one!

Cro Magnon said...

Of course you would.

Cro Magnon said...

Was this one that we know of? I did notice that your 'barmaid' piece had been deleted.

Yael said...

I can understand that Maria, i have a lot tosay but my English is so embarrssing so i don't write much.

New World said...

It was more of a stalker type. Could be anybody with a new chosen identity for the job. Who knows.

The Weaver of Grass said...

This sometimes happens to me too Cro - when it does, because my computer skills are rather limited, I abandon it and carry on with those blogs I can reach.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm afraid one has no other option.

Sue said...

Grouchy used to have a blog and then he just suddenly disappeared.

Cro Magnon said...

I think he still has it, but one can no longer get access.

John said...

Certainly consider it Maria, after all it cannot be any worse than the drivel written by Cro and myself ;-)

Jennifer said...

Oh, do Maria! I would love to read your blog!

John Going Gently said...

Some are just drama queens cro

Graham Edwards said...

Yael, never be embarrassed. Your English is a lot better than Hebrew or almost any other language foreign to most English-speaking British people is. Indeed these days there are fewer and fewer of even those people with a good grasp of grammatical English.

I think that some have just given up writing on Blogger and removed their profile and blog. I know that is the case with a few people that I have followed.

Cro Magnon said...

Maybe you're right.

Cro Magnon said...

I think if they'd just stopped, it would say 'Blog page no longer exists', or some such.

New World said...

This blog has been deleted.

New World said...

My blog is just embarrassing full stop

Frances said...

I have had that same dead end experience, when trying to access certain blog sites. Sometimes it is disappointing to discover that a familiar site has, like Elvis, left the building.

I also wish that Maria would write a blog. It could be about anything, dear Maria, and appear as often as you wished.

Switching topics, I made another chicken curry yesterday and thank you again, dear Cro, for reminding me how delicious such simple dishes can be on a hot summer evening. It's cooler here today after overnight rain, but the leftover curry will be even more delicious this evening.

Best wishes.

Maria said...

Thank you. I will track down a teenager, a kid, a nerd, anyone to help me start a blog of my own, but I doubt it; I already have stage fright to see my name here! x

New World said...

I am happy to see your comments Maria. That's fine with mexx

For several years I have quietly floated around Blogland enjoying the fruits of your labours. Every now and then, I am compelled to comment but to do so, I need an identity. It has never been my intention to hide or have a blog. Sorry! I do so enjoy your blog!

Jimmy said...

I deleted mine. Nobody wanted to buy puka shell neclaces and bracelets.

Cro Magnon said...

I always have my leftover curry for breakfast. 2 mins in the microwave, and I'm set-up for the day.

Cro Magnon said...

No you haven't; I was just reading your piece about FFJ.

Cro Magnon said...

If you've never had a blog, that's different. It's the ones I used to follow (that suddenly became unavailable) that I miss. I don't understand they're sudden privacy.

Cro Magnon said...

Me too.

Frances said...

Maria, I have been reading your comments on various blogs for ages now, and you sound like a lovely person, who I am sure could entertain with your own posts. I am always interested to find out about the lives of others, however boring they think they are! My dog walking pal says I am " nosey" as I know a life story after a few minutes chat with a newly met dog walker…..I call it interested in people.!
