Slashdot Mirror

I know how much you guys like **Beatles Beatles From TFA:

George Harrison was "the quiet Beatle". But it was Harrison who first made his mark after the Beatles disbanded by scoring a No. 1 hit single with "My Sweet Lord," in 1970 (the success of the single was somewhat marred by a 1976 court ruling that found Harrison guilty of "subconscious plagiarism" of The Chiffons' charming ditty "He's So Fine"). Even if his self-deprecating and retiring personality made it hard for him to be heard above his charismatic bandmates, few will deny that Harrison - as a guitarist and as a songwriter - was an important voice for the Beatles.

The story is not about Roland or Beatles Beatles or whatever other random user is submitting a lot of stuff this week.

Shouldn't that read:

"The story is not about Roland or Beatles Beatles or whatever other random user is submitting a lot of stuff this week."?

Ah, slashdot editors...

I just looked over his site http://www.george-harrison.info/ and it looks legitimate and not like a link farm. Just to be sure I went and looked at the site in the google cache, but it still looked okay to me. However there is a lot of upset here (and if you ask me: yes, there is definitely something fishy going on with ScuttleMonkey posting such a slew of * * Beatles-Beatles submissions) Maybe I am missing something here and in case he's guilty, this is where you report him: http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html To their credit Google takes these reports seriously and investigates them.

Looks like ScuttleMoney^H^Hkey still doesn't get it, as well as other Slashdotters. So, let me repost this for the thousandst time.

Interesting thing is, ScuttleMonkey seems to use some standard template for * *Beatles-Beatles submissions, since ALL of them start by: "* * Beatles-Beatles writes to tell us...".

So, let me repost some earlier post of mine:

Ok, let's have a look at his george-harrison.info website. Aha, maybe the links at the bottom of the page? Yes, I see: http://george-harrison.info/reciprocal-links.html.

Sooo, what may be on that page? Quoting:

Looking at the link list (just a small excerpt):

What do we learn? * * Beatles-Beatles is an ugly link spammer who uses Slashdot to increase the PageRank of his own site, on which he hosts a link farm.

HTH!

WOW, Beatles has such an awesome site I of course wanted to make a backup in case it ever goes down. Of course I want my backup to be have only the most recent data, so I keep my backups as fresh as possible. I also make backups of similar amazing sites strangers sometime send me links to via email...

Maybe someone could help me out. Normally I let this run at night...

site-backup-list.txt
http://george-harrison.info/
http://othersites.example.com/
make-backup-sites.bat
:repeat
wget -r -l 999 --proxy=off -i site-backup-list.txt
goto repeat

Sadly, george-harrison.info returns 503 Unknown Site errors to wget. Does someone know how I may be able to make backups of their site in an automated fasion, preferrably from the command line?

Here come the -1, Offtopic mods, which I have a feeling will not be meta-moderated.

He's ruining Slashdot, so here's what we need to do:

1. He has a guest book that we can troll, spam, etc. Unfortunately he's shut off image posting (from what we did to him last time) but we're not going to let that stop us, are we? Show this moron spammer who's boss!

2. If you go to the very bottom of the page, there's some kind of link farming going on. I'm not sure if this is trollable, but if it is, I'm sure someone on Slashdot can figure out how to do it. The best thing would be to find a way to shut down the entire link farm somehow, or else redirect it to goatse or something. This constant beatles spamming on slashdot is getting old.

3. If you have a web page, do some creative googlebombing about stupid websites and moron spammers or whatever.
