I had to fight my way out of the Grey hell twice already. Once for being new and the second time for being an asshole. I'm not looking forward to a third time.

Please, I got banned by the Editor in Chief and I still made my way back.

Yeah I went through a similar situation. I'm just not looking forward to it again. I'm not worried about it but I'm not gonna enjoy it.

Being an asshole is what you do best! It's a gift not many know how to properly wield.

I would assume that if Jalopnik is currently following you, you won't be in the grey.

That's the problem.... they're not.

Ahh. Sucks. If I remember, I think I had simply emailed a link to one of my comments to Orlove or one of the other authors and asked politely for a follow... not sure if that works anymore.

I'm trying to figure out how Oppo, lifehacker and Road & Track are following me but Jalopnik isn't. Someone doesn't like me!

Someone definitely doesn't like me. I'm in pretty much the same situation.

Eh I don't post on Jalopnik that much anyways and I don't really care if my comments get recommended or starred so meh whatevs.

You know, you're right. I used to comment on Jalopnik all the time but now I spend most of my time on Oppo.

I'd bet I read 5 or 6 articles on Jalopnik and 50 or 60 on Oppo a day.

That sounds about right. I always find myself wondering why there aren't 3 new articles on Jalopnik after 5 minutes.

I've been an active commentor for several years. Now I'm in the greys because no one follows me. I've never said anything to have me banned, How the fuck do I get out???

Well I just fixed your Oppo problem. Didn't even know I had that ability.

thanks!

Do I have to be followed by every blog?

mcseanerson > LooseSEAL 09/05/2014 at 16:27

Any blog you want to reply to, yep. I'm still grey on the film festival one but I'm back on the front page again.

The fastest fix is make good comments that the editors will like directly to their posts so they see them.
