Forum Moderators: Robert Charlton & goodroi
To make a long story short, a psycho ex work colleague has impersonated me in a web forum (not here) and I have only just discovered this. He made over 100 posts without directly stating my name, but enough that future employers would probably be able to guess it was me. It isn't defamatory but it's crazy stuff (rantings against the government, the church, other co-workers and organizations, etc) that I do NOT want associated with me. I have managed to have the posts deleted, but my problem is that Google has cached these pages. Now that these posts are deleted, will Google eventually cache the updated pages with my posts removed? Forum mods are totally unhelpful. Thanks!
However, Google does hold onto old versions of pages in their Supplemental Index for sometimes over a year. So it would still be possible, with a very precise query, to trigger that Supplemental Index page in the search results. As far as I know, there is no way to remove a page from the Supplemental Index.
There is no way to control that, but you need will some very specific queries to get the Supplemental Data to show up in the SERPs.
For the most part, that page will usually show up as a normal result - and that will be for the current content on those pages.
If the page has been completely deleted then it will only show up in the Supplemental Index and it will take a year for it to fade away.
In the message field, include details about how the live version of the page is different from the cached version.
