Here's something for the next time you want to "expose" a phony: before linking me to your investigative source, ask for exact date-stamps when I made changes to the robots.txt and what I did, as well as when I blocked IPs. I could have told you those exactly, because all those changes are tracked in a git repo. If you asked me first, I could have answered you with the precise dates, and you would have realized that your whole theory makes absolutely no sense. Of course, that entire approach is mood now, because I'm not an idiot and I know when commoncrawl crawls, so I could easily adjust my response to their crawling dates, and you would of course claim I did.

So I'll just wear my "certified-phony-by-orangesite-user" badge with pride.

Take care, anonymous internet user.

>I'm not an idiot and I know when commoncrawl crawls

When will commoncrawl crawl your site again?

Gentleman’s bet. If you can accurately predict the day of four of the next six months of commoncrawls crawl, I’ll donate $500 to the charity of your choice. Fail to, donate $100 to the charity of my choice.

  • Or heck, $1000 to the charity of your choice if you can do 6 of 6, no expectation on your end. Just name the day from February to July, since you’re no idiot.
