Looks like the server time hasn't been reset one hour back for the end of DST, as well as drifting off by half an hour too. At 02:08 UTC, your in-post time-stamp is saying 03:38 a.m. or so.

I should have just posted this search and walked away: http://www.google.com/search?num=100&filter=0&q=redirect+g1smd Pffffttt!!!!!!!!

I'm sure a lot of other newbies get it, too. It's pretty ignorant to make those assumptions about someone when you don't even know what that person's daily schedule looks like.

LOL.

You are honestly probably reading more and paying more attention to what goes on than many of those people...so just smile nicely and think "boy will they be surprised when their brakes fail!" @g1smd: wow, how right you are...with a Viking at our helm, I can't imagine anyone is that stupid. Plus, we never make ANY mistakes. People love to tell you that you don’t know anything about SEO when you start out.

I agree with many commenters - you need to ignore, cool off, don't engage and just "fu*k 'em". Envy is a terrible master and I've seen it at work where I am. @g1smd - and a good thing to because I know what Lisa would do and frankly I wouldn't want to have to clean up the mess afterwards. Blood never comes out of carpets nor off walls. @Stephanie - I've been doing this since 1996 and I stillget told I don't know what I'm doing. To take a leaf from Lisa D's own book - "Fu*k 'em" Fantastic to see you blogging Rebecca!

A lot of people have been saying "You don't know anything about SEO." Well maybe I don't know a lot, but how is anyone supposed to learn. While there might be a lot of nasty people out there (and that goes for any industry).. I find there to actually be a lot of nice people in the blogosphere. But is has always been easier for me to talk freely with "the warm light of the computer screen"... from telling the boy in 8th grade that I had a crush on him from telling the boy in the UK that I hate his blog.

I've not had the opportunity (thankfully) to address any negative comments on my blog as of yet, but I've definitely run into my fair share of similar situations within my day to day life. The best way to handle any negativity that's far from constructive for me is a 24 hour rule if possible. If you can give yourself time to cool off and put things in perspective, it will no doubt "defuse" the situation. Looking forward to more great posts! Well done.
