Blog Icon Shoemoney Gone Wild - Loses Control and MELTS DOWN at DigitalPoint

Posted in Do No Evil, Dangerous People by Dave on July 28th, 2008

Shoemoney MeltdownsThere’s been a lot of rumours floating around that the attention starved, geek affiliate blogger turned wannabe media personality Jeremy “ShoeMoney” Schoemaker has been regressing into deep depression because he’s running out of money and that he’s on his way to filing bankruptcy. His most recent temper tantrum at DP forum certainly paints a disturbing, unprofessional portrait and it would come as no suprise if Shoemoney’s days as an internet meme are numbered.

All that conjecture aside, it seems the thread I started last night over at DigitalPoint has sent the chrome domed, pale as a ghost Powder look-a-like into a dazzling temper tantrum exhibiting the megalomaniac blogger’s unbridled lack of self-control. Maybe he needs to get some sunlight, maybe he needs to get laid, maybe he just needs some attention he craves so much but any way you slice it, Shoemoney is a total loser.

Sure, we’re all used to Schoemaker’s rabid rants, his linkbait false accusations (DMOZ Extortion) and his constant attacks on but this time he has really popped a gasket. His actions at DigitalPoint should not go unnoticed and it is a rightful indicator that has a truly vile and contemptible nature which only serves to tarnish forums. This time he has gone too far. Here’s a couple of screenshots to show just how arrogant and ignorant this hubristic geek gone wild truly is.

Shoemoney Meltdown

Above, Shoemoney shows his lack of control and launches a profanity laden personal attack but look at this…

Shoemoney Meltdown

Yeah, can you believe it, Shoemoney banned me from DigitalPoint forums !!! A place where I’ve made hundreds of friends, racked up a ton of good reputation and am known for helping people out and telling the truth. In all honesty, I’m not a bit worried because I’m certain my DP account will be re-instated once one of the more professional moderators such as Buffalo, Roman or Crazy_Rob read this and find out that Shoemoney is using DP as his personal battle field and banning members for simply stating their opinion of his blog. I’m sorry, but last time I checked, DigitalPoint was a public forum and all topics were open for discussion - including Mr. Schoemaker’s blog which is also publicly accessible. If Jeremy “ShoeMoney” Schoemaker can’t handle the heat he needs to get his butt out of the kitchen.

Shoemoney’s childish profanity and hostile manner of banning members who have been in good standing at DP over the long haul is a true disservice to any webmaster forum on the internet and it is my opinion that Schoemaker should be removed as a moderator at DigitalPoint because he certainly brings nothing worthwhile to the table. Shoemoney must be held accountable for his hostile actions, vile language and personal attacks on other members of DigitalPoint because they have no place at any public forum, especially from a moderator.

Jeremy Schoemaker, if you’re reading this, you have proven you are unprofessional, immature and a totally arrogant hostile little person who lacks self control. Simply banning my account at DP because I questioned your integrity will not stop me from exposing you as the charlatan that you are. If you were a real man, you would have dealt with it as a man, however, you are not a real man, hell, you’re not even a boy, you’re just a freak who sees his 15 minutes of fame ticking down right before his eyes and there’s nothing you can do to stop the slide down the slippery slope you clawed your way up.

If you are reading this article and you were involved with the discussion on DP, please don’t let Shoemoney get away with this gross abuse of power. Speak up or forever hold your piece and be a whipping post for corrupt mods like Jeremy “ShoeMoney” Schoemaker who thinks DP is his own personal forum.

Blog Icon Google’s Blogger Platform Serving 2% of the Internet’s Malicious Viruses

Posted in Things to Avoid, Do No Evil by Dave on July 27th, 2008

Google Malware VirusIt’s no secret that Google is responsible for the most comprehensive spyware network, spying on internet users through their search engine, advertising programs, feedburner, webmasters tools, analytics and the notorious Gmail email service which stores users email forever even if the user has deleted it. The spyware issue is reason enough to avoid Google’s internet offerings however anybody who has seen Googles warnings in the search engine results stating “This page may harm your computer” might be interested in the fact that Google has been found to be responsible for serving over 2% of the internet’s malicious viruses through their Blogger free blog service. This information is according to a report by Sophos anti-virus…

Source : Don’t Be Evil–Just Serve Ads on It

blockquote Looks like Google’s Blogger is a more popular blogging platform than Wordpress and Moveable Type, after all–in some circles, anyway. Internet security outfit Sophos says it detects just over 16,000 malicious Web pages each day, and nearly 2 percent of them are hosted on Blogger. “The number one host for malware on the web is Blogger (Blogspot.com), which allows computer users to make their own Web sites easily at no charge,” Sophos said in its 2008 Security Threat Report (PDF), adding that between malicious blogs and malicious comments posted to otherwise benign blogs, Blogspot.com accounts for two percent of all of the world’s malware hosted on the Web.

Do no evil??? I don’t think so…

I’m sure any webmaster who operates a blog or a forum can attest to the fact that Blogger and Blogspot accounts for a much higher percentage of the spam that is posted in blog comments or on forums. I have made it a habit to add the domains blogger.com and blogspot.com to my comment blacklist on each new installation of wordpress because it seems 70-80% of all my trackback and comment spam links back to those spam-laden domains. Additionally, whenever I see a blogger or blogspot url in any search results, I put on blinders an avoid it like the plague.

Considering Google is so adept at policing other people’s self-hosted blogs, searching for paid links and sponsored reviews, maybe they should start at home and clean up their own mess before they start sticking their nose where it doesn’t belong. Funny thing is that even though Google accounts for the largest proportion of malicious websites, you’ll never see a “This page may harm your computer” warning when you search for Blogger or Blogspot.

Blog Icon BlackHatBootCamp.com Busted Referrer Spamming DP Members

Posted in Things to Avoid, Do No Evil by Dave on July 23rd, 2008

Black Hat Boot Camp BompaI’ll never understand why these stupid Syndik8 forum kids think they’re mastermind internet marketing wizards because they can do something so stupid as referrer spamming but apparently the little acne ridden troglodytes think they are God’s gift to making money online.

A thread was posted at DigitalPoint a few days ago that brought up an issue of some 60 year old retired troll Syndik8 ringleader who calls himself “Bompa” (possible real name David Benware) who was harvesting DigitalPoint member’s domain names and using some kiddie script to dump 500+ lines in their server logfiles as shown below :


66.225.211.249 - - [20/Jul/2008:05:39:59 -0400] “HEAD / HTTP/1.1″ 200 - “http://blackhatbootcamp.com” “MORE TRAFFIC! - MORE MONEY! - LEARN HOW!”

Even though this “black hat” SEO expert presented himself on the DP thread, admitted he was guilty as charged and attempted to apologize, he clearly stated he wasn’t stopping :

blockquote It will only be available to members of the Boot Camp. Membership is limited
to only 25 at this time. Plus, not all members use all of the tools. (I know this
from the other tools that I code and release to my members: KommentKing,
ExtremeSearchBot, BlogCreator, etc.)

Needless to say, he was banned from DP for his actions and most likely he will be banned from his webhosting company or beter yet, his domain name might be banned because he is obviously using phony registration data :

Oh well, he only only has a few months left on his domain registration. Any bets as to whether this domain gets renewed ?? Hopfully Brian Krassenstein of TalkGold forums doesn’t read this post because next thing you know we’ll be seeing referrer spam promoting Talkgold or TeamEarners.
