    Default When is a link not a link?

    In an attempt to avoid posting duplicates, I did the usual and searched for “Lucy Clarkson” using the on-site Google and advanced search, prior to upload.

    The Advanced Search – no hits

    Google Search - 3 hits but:

    Link / Result

    www.newsgab.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45564 I do not have permission etc.

    The last time I came across the ‘permission’ response, it was because the pictures had been taken down due to violation. In fact I’m reasonably sure I did once see the middle post, albeit briefly.

    Is there a problem?

    If the links found are meant to be dead, would it be possible to remove them please just to keep things tidy and unproblematic.

    This is not unique, I have come across such oddities before.

    If you mean can we remove them from google. Nope can't be done google is forever. They store all the links are froze in Carbonite. Or at least maybe till the re index the site and even then they may never be removed. I sure you've found as link to a site or forum only to find out it no longer exists.

    So the Google search engine we use here, will by default, become worse and worse and worse.

    Thats comforting.
