About this Blog and the issue I have with Pingoat

My name is Steve Black and this is my first Blog.
I kept the template simple to load fast.
There are no pictures of me trying to sell myself or fancy graphics to slow down the page.

At least five days a week
(My wife and I like to camp or do other activities on weekends. ), I look through resources, some private or paid for.

I hand select and post articles that would be of interest to people looking for marketing information.
Some of these articles have my affiliate link attached.
I don't hide these links you could even insert your own affiliate id.

This Blog has links to my other part time project.
Advanced Business Marketing
A hand built web site using notepad. An encyclopedia of marketing terms.
A work in progress. Some letters of the alphabet are hard to find articles to list under.

The issue I have with Pingoat.

Pingoat is a free service that works well for what it is intended.
I used it a few times after updating my blog to notify various blog listing sites.
The last time I tried to submit my blog a notice appeared stating that my blog had been black listed.

I thought this has to be some kind of mistake. After looking through the FAQ and other links, I found you have to join the community forum to ask why this has happened.

After filling the form to join, then posting a question of why.
Someone representing Pingoat posted a reply in the forum stating,
( "your blog is 100% fed from other web sites and is very conveniently fed via some sort of automatic program, for this your blog will remain blacklisted").
No truth to that statement. I have never used any software to collect or post articles. I could not find anywhere on the Pingoat site stating that all content must be original.

At first if felt insulted, then a little angry. Without any proof, based on an employees oppinion, I have been accused of the Blogging equivalent of spamming. On a forum anyone could read.
I have asked and I am waiting for a retraction to this false accusation.
Please feel free to add a comment to this post pro or con.
