    Hi, I know how you guys are with members banned or warned but I'd really appreciate your responses.
    Google advised me today that this blog Sexmate was in violation of their adult and or mature content ruling, and they eactivated the ads on it.

    I know what you are thinking, SEXMATE :eek:
    Well initially it was just an experimental blog and eventually I added Google Ads to it.
    There are pictures of women on the blog in bikinis etc and maybe one or two topless pictures but hardly anything pornographic. That's beside the point though, if Google says it's a violation it is.

    My problem is I seem to be banned from logging in to my Blogger account to correct it. I believe this is so because I have two blogger accounts and am able to login with the other.

    Any ideas on how I should proceed?
    I have already replied to them stating my willingness to make the changes but I can't if I cannot access the blog.

    Thanks Nystul.
    Seems no one cared or couldn't help.
    Either way, here is an update...

    Google told me that the sexmate site was banned permanently because of placing ads on pages with adult or mature content but they have retained my other blogs.
    For that I am grateful and last evening I spent three hours going through many pages and removing all the pictures that can be construed as "adult or mature" and placing them in the banned site. Linking to them from the sites where they originated.

    I can't complain because Google could have banned me outright but I have to admit it is strange that popular celebrity blogs regularly post photos of so-called nipple-slips while I was banned for something much less or at the very worst, something similar.

    What exactly is mature or adult content I ask because almost anything can be interpreted as adult or mature.
    Maybe I am ignorant but I thought they meant pornographic literature and or images, not a shot of a woman in a towel or topless.
    Next they will say a woman in a bikini is mature or adult content.
