Mod Post: Issues with Comments

Dear Robsessors,

It's been brought to our attention that you are experiencing a crazy CAPTCHA loop when you try to log-in to comment. Unfortunately it's an issue with Disqus, not us. They say they are trying to fix it, please hang in there 💓

Here's the message from Disqus:

You may be receiving the following message when trying to sign up:
You must re-submit this request with a response to the captcha challenge
Captchas not displaying is known issue that we're working on fixing. Currently, this affects signups on the Disqus comment embed on websites.
How to workaround the issue
For the time being, we recommend you signup at https://disqus.com/profile/signup/before going back to the site you wish to comment on.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and we're working getting this issue resolved soon.

Apology for the redirects

Dear readers,

One of our friends informed us that for the last couple of days when she clicked on the pictures on ROBsessed she was being redirected to a phishing site. After some research we found out that the "sitemeter" widget we had at the bottom of the page was to blame. We had this widget since we founded our site in 2008,  but unfortunately there are a lot of reports on the internet that the widget is no longer safe.

We removed it immediately and did a malware scan on our site, it's completely clean. You can safely browse :)

We would like to thank Laura for letting us know. In the future if any of you have any trouble with our site please do not hesitate to immediately email us at robsessedtips@gmail.com

UPDATE: We got an email saying there was also a "pop-up" problem. When the pop-up is loading there should be a website link displayed somewhere on the page. If you can see that link, please email us so that we can solve the issue.

UPDATE 2: We found the guilty "pop-up" app and removed it but it may take a couple of hours for it to get back to normal :) Thanks for the support!

Thank you, xoxo
Gozde, Kate, Kat, TINK and PJ

Welcome Guest Blogger: PJ

Dear Robsessors,

PJ, a long time reader and friend, has joined our team as a guest blogger to help out for a while.

Please give her a big ROBsessed welcome :)

I'm using the same picture I used when I introduced TINK to you all back in 2010 because it's just too pretty :)

How NOT to comment 101 & A Q&A with the ROBsessed Bloggers

This is a post from 2012 but we see that a reminder is needed. I will keep the post exactly as it was in 2012 but will add a couple of things in red.

Dear ROBsessed Readers,

 At ROBsessed we don't censor comments.

We don't moderate, we don't wait for comments to fall in to our mailboxes for approval.

We very rarely delete comments.

This blog was started because our comments were censored.

We believe in freedom of speech as long as you observe proper crassness :)

So here we go:

Photobucket

- Please don't bully people. If you don't agree with them try to convince them. Don't tell them to shut up or leave the blog. It's everyone's blog, not just yours.

- Please don't abuse our good will by posting hateful messages towards Robert Pattinson or his costars, friends. Please don't abuse our good will by posting NC-17 rated stuff. YOU might think it's funny but others don't want to read about your sexual habits, fantasies, thoughts IN DETAIL. Suggestion is okay, we use a LOT of suggestion as well but don't be crude. Before posting think about this: "Would you say those things to a perfect stranger?" if no then please don't post it in the comments.

Don't let Rob go:

 

 We received an email with the below questions and thought they were valid. Here are our replies:

 

 1. Are we expected to immediately acquiesce if someone finds a comment inappropriate?

ROBsessed: No, of course not. The comments are for debating. If someone thinks a comment is inappropriate he/she can voice her opinion and explain why they think the comment is inappropriate. A healthy debate can solve the problem. Not bullying someone to change their mind.

- Please don't flag a comment just because you disagree with it. If you disagree, talk it out and try to convince each other.

- Don't expect us to police the comments. If a person thinks Rob is ugly, tell them to go see an ophthalmologist but please don't report them to us because even though the person is obviously out of his/her mind we won't delete comments like that.

2. IS Rob's personal life completely off-limits on this site? If so, how do we justify the conversations about bulges, underwear, the fit of his trousers, and "skipping off to the DR"?

ROBsessed: No, Rob's personal life is not off-limits. Especially in the comments. We, the bloggers, choose what to post but in the comments you can discuss whatever you like.

3. Is Kristen a persona non grata now and never to be mentioned again? 

ROBsessed: It's a personal choice. This is a Rob blog so we talk about Rob. You can talk about anything you want :)

-The post was right after the scandal so it's an old question but I need to add this: Everyone has an opinion about who Rob should be with. In my opinion he should be with me. I can come on the blog and post a comment about how I think he is making a bad choice and say that we are meant to be together. I may be advised to go see a psychiatrist but I am entitled to be delusional :) 

- On the other hand racist remarks, swearing, bullying will not be tolerated.

4. Are we not allowed to ponder where he is in the world or what he's doing? 

ROBsessed: I don't know about you but we ponder that all the time :)

5. Are we not permitted to say we read something crazy and want to share it and invite others' opinions? 

ROBsessed: Once again, you can talk about anything you like. If that crazy thing you read is about Rob, you can send it to the mods and we can post it if it's blog material.

6. I'm honestly perplexed as to where the blog is headed. Is this only a film blog now? 

ROBsessed: Does it seem like only a film blog? We still post photos of Rob out and about doing the mundanest things. We post anything/everything about Rob if we think they have merit. This blog is about Rob. Everything he does. If he decides to go skinny dipping tomorrow we'll be more than happy to post that as well. (Start the prayer group now!)

Feedback Feeds Our Soul



Dear Robsessers,

Yesterday we had a "glitch" and the videos on the blog were on autoplay. As soon as someone emailed us we fixed it but if that person didn't email and let us know it would keep annoying you all.

Please send us tips/suggestions/complaints and lots of lovin' at robsessedtips @ gmail . com when there's a problem. We can't monitor all the comments so sending an email is the best way to get in contact with us.

Thank you!
