[My Distinguished Guest!!!]

Well, I think the second-to-most "I" of VIPs may have stopped by yesterday. The premier would be Ellen herself, which I assume would never happen, but then again I didn't expect this either! Dreams just keep coming true here at ELLENWatch.

We can only hope to be "worthy"

This honored visitor chose not to identify herself, so I will assume she'd prefer not to attach her name to her comment and will follow suit. Unlike me, she actually has a reputation and a business involved here! But if you're curious, check the comments on my last post. 


U-know-hoo! 


This information presents a major breakthrough for me, in a number of respects:
1) Someone (or staff) is doing the hard work of identifying Ellen by IP addresses;
1a) Posts are filtered according to IP address rather than handle (the correct approach, of course!)
2) Posts from these addresses are being filtered but, at least much of the time, approved and released;*
3) "Ellen" is one person using multiple addresses or, alas, multiple people;
4) "Ellen(s)" is/are trying proactively to get around screening even though there has not been any outright ban. One certainly wonders about the volume and content of Ellen posts that are not approved...and how much effort goes into the screening...Too bad the person(s) with exclusive first access to all of Ellen's comments is probably not enjoying this privilege as much as we would...


*We already had plenty of reason to believe Ellen comments were being moderated, and even Ellen has expressed dismay at their delay in posting, but this confirms. 
-----------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure what to do with these findings yet, other than post and file. But while I know my distinguished guest has better things to do with her time than ELLENWatching, it's very warm and fuzzy to know that perused here (and that she's considering a pair of sweatpants with STOP STAREING on the butt).


We Salute You,
XOXO,
