Hi all, wonder if someone knows how to make Google stop those "Blocked URL" notifications in WMT about the fact that they've removed a page from Google's index.

I receive one/two every month for the last half a year or so, so far twelve of them. It is about the same page on a forum that was submitted by a user and was actually someone's article. The author filed DMCA complaint instead of contacting me. I think it would have been so much easier to just drop me an email but I digress...

Anyways, I have removed the page right after the first notification. I guess, Google thought it's worth to reinforce the point eleven more times.

I would say it must not be good for your site to have a complaint filed against you because ranks are in the toilet for that site.

In any case, does anyone know a way to contact Google and just let them know that I did what they wanted me to lo-o-o-ng time ago? I find it mildly amusing that when they say "communication with webmasters" they actually mean one-way only...

I guess I'm not the only one who's received those over and over about pages long ago deleted. No idea either about how to Google to stop, but I'm certainly interested in any solutions.
