Change of perception

For those of us that blog frequently we have come to know other regular bloggers reasonably well and in some cases have rightly or wrongly formed an opinion as to how we perceive those persons to be.

Just recently, I was told how (in some quarters) I am perceived to be from the posts I make and the blogs I write.
Not only did this prompt me to change my profile but also to ask the following questions.....

1) Have you ever changed your opinion of someone due to a post they have made or a blog they have written?
2) Would you change your opinion of someone if they changed the way they post or the blogs they write?


Just as a footnote...Despite having changed my profile, I’m quite pleased with the perception that was imparted to me and have no intention of trying to change it.

Hi Sol. Yes, I find that the blogs give one a good idea of what a person is like, their personality etc. I have changed my opinion about certain bloggers, some good some bad.
Sorry, I meant to say that I have formed an opinion. I have not been here long enough to decide but some people do seem to change their minds a lot, which makes me wonder.confused
Lately many new comers. The number of bloggers day by day are increase. I do not too care what and who and how they are .. To me, here is the place to hang out, so just accept as they are and no need try to act that I know you all as I know some.

Changing or not Changing their profile or their style how to poat the blog or comment does not matter to me as it will not change their real character.
handshake I wholeheartedly agree that we are only here to give our personal opinion on the subject at hand. Me as one of the newcomers have as much right to put my few remarks forward. Another thing in a moment of weakness I allowed myself to retaliate to some remarks made,which is slamming the person of which I don't change my views. It remains as such because because you don't start something then when the truth hits home to you being in the wrong you stand behind the firing line while the others take the bullet. Own up to your assumptions and move on or don't start a topic if you know it is not water tight or nonsensical. PEACE angel
Nothing I have to take serious in here.. Everybody have right to talk, so let it be....
I read blog... I am interested, I put comment, otherwise I passed.
Someone told me, don't post blog or comment when I am not in the mood. I think he's right...
It takes a couple of similar comments or blogs for me to form an opinion or change my opinion about someone. Sometimes you suspect there is something you don't like about that person then one blog or one comment is all that is needed to confirm what you suspected. That is more or less how I decide what to think of who.
People don't change much. I would assume something had changed in their lives (in love, or out of it, stopped heavy drinking or started) so would watch with some interest to see if I could work it out. But if they suddenly started spelling a different way, or using words completely differently, I would assume the profile had changed hands. Does that ever happen?? wow
Amorn's comment made me look at the number of bloggers. 400 exactly, as I type this wow but I think fewer than 100 still active.
Human beings have many sides to them, we have to live and be around them to truly know them.

My profile reads:

To many people here I may seem to be meak and mild because I never join in any arguments,
well not yet anyway laugh believe you me, if anyone spoke to me face to face like they do to others on these blogs, I would slap them down so hard they would wonder what hit them, then ask questions later. devil
