what is the point?
Of pointing someone(s) activity on the blogs? We are all human beings with our own individual perspectives.Are we trying to stop them from what they deem is fitting for them?
In other words, we are trying to control them?
or
Are we trying to mend some sort of internal shortcoming by convincing others that another person is acting in such an unorthodox way?
In other words, there is some sort of lack of self confidence....self worth...or insecurity??
Whatever the case, it does not really matter to me. I only write this blog because I believe people are allowed to be people...in all their own unique ways.
Not to mention...
We are all entitled, as the blog rules confirmed...to write what we feel is right.
If not...
The moderators surely would have removed the blog(s) by now.
Blog on everyone.
Take no offense if I decide not to check out one of your blogs....
That is also a choice afforded to me.
This blog is not intended to condemn anyone here...either the blog writers....or the writers who write about blog writers.
The world is full of all types. It takes all types to make the world. But, I think it would be disappointing if some types felt that they could not freely express themselves for whatever reason.

what did I miss ?
I am as happy as a clam. :) ....and always take things easy.
You didn't miss much. Maybe it is me missing something.
My hustle and bustle lifestyle is about the begin in a few minutes. ...I have a rat race to participate in.
come on, Jonnhy, why are you grumpy early morning there? can't talk for long but do give me a call after youve had your cold shower
had a busy start here, mostly sorting out mess of some incompetent people over there in CO
If I give you a call, it will be much later....if at all. Unless you do not mind me calling you from some establishment. There a very few evenings where I am home these days. But don't be bashful either...if I miss your call, know it is not being done on purpose. I enjoy our chats. :)
Don't be too tough of the CO people.
Will talk soon....take care and have fun.
3 numbers now!
We do have the right to be who we are, what we write about as long as it's alright with the owners of this site.
Other than that, I'm OK.
I hope you're alright Johnny.

But we can avoid people just as easily.
If you are "put out" by people on a dating site,gaming maybe is a better outlet
for mindless aggression,or Forums where being putting your best foot forward or
Facebook links,view numbers are of no consequence.
Johnny
beingoops.Then let's see if that works.
If not then I suspect a very self indulged motivation who's goal is to push down all the other blogs.
Imagine if all of us will flood like he does, lol...the blog page will go at the speed if light. .
Ultimately it's up for the mods to control it.
Beyond that, I guess he enjoys the blog section to see his face about 12 of them each page.
haven't blogged yet.Solid forum comments! Thanks..g'bye.
great idea
We all can choose. What to read
We have a menu of selection
To get my teeth sulk into
But this is just another blog of a same kind.
Thank you for your contribution.
For some people, it takes a lot of courage to create a blog and post it. At one time, I was one of them.
Since this is a dating site, I feel people should be encourage to express themselves the way they deem fit. That is the beauty of trying to find a mate. What one person does may not be right for me or you or whoever...but it might be right for the next person. If we try and make them conform to just one way of doing things...how can one see their true nature. Not to mention, if they don't blog at all because of fear of ridicule, one may not see them at all...or they themselves may be defeating their own purpose of joining a dating site by not putting themselves out there.
Just my take.
I share in what you say. I feel this is a dating site where we are trying to make connections with others, trying to find our future partner. If we do not find another our cup of tea, no problem. I don't think it is fair to discourage them from expressing themselves...they might be someone else's cup of tea. Not to mention, they joined this dating site to find their cup of tea.
I am fine, thank you...I am happy to hear you are doing wonderful as well.
But, to what you say about flooding the board, that is understandable. If a member or members is doing that and the mods are allowing it, then I say it is fine. That is what the blogger wishes to do and evidently the mods are okay with it. Essentially, that is something out of our hands. I suppose one could contact the site and express their concerns about it. The mods do seem to monitor things pretty well and take appropriate actions. However, to make them a public spectacle, thus, having it a possibility of discouraging them and potential new bloggers of expressing themselves....is somewhat problematic to me, just from a reality standpoint. I (we) am/are here on a dating site and the more people that we have a change to engage with, the better our odds of finding a partner...not to mention maybe learning from new perspectives.
I am speaking for myself here, it don't bother me to have so many blogs that do not allow comment on the blogs. Again, speaking for myself. However, if others have issues with it, that is fine. Like I mentioned in my response to LJ, I feel that is something that needs to be addressed by the site itself.
Now, would it be more considerate of a blogger to do as you say? I would suppose that would depend on the blogger and blog reader's perspective. The blogger is not doing anything wrong per the site rules...but to ridicule a blogger's blogs in public....I feel is just a defeating deed.
I mean, doesn't it make sense to encourage as many people to express themselves here to increase the chances of finding the proper partner for us? ...that even includes the people who are doing the ridiculing...don't they want a bigger pool to choose from for the proper partner?
Anyway...perhaps the site may make some changes if it really is such a big concern for bloggers to blog many posts.
....that, of course, includes myself as well....even when it comes to reading ridiculing blogs.
My concern is for the people who feel that it would be easier to just not get engaged in the blogs of fear of being attacked for their action(s). The more people engaging, the better odds of a dating site succeeding in finding partners for others.
I think what you say about limiting a blogger to one blog a day is a feasible solution. If the mods feel there is a need to make some adjustments, they may very well consider that.
I completely agree with you.
Thinking a little more about this situation, the solution to one side of the issue can be easy. As Pat suggested, one blog per day. But to find a solution for what you point out, is much more tricky.
I think the best way to address it is by pointing out the obvious...the less we encourage people to express themselves and engage on the blogs, the fewer people who will participate...therefore...the lower the chance at finding a partner on a dating site.....for all.
After all, we did join a dating site...to make a connection...not repel.
Thanks Usha.
I agree....and so true.
Yeah. After I reread it...I seen a lot of reference to tea.
It's all up to the owners of this site.
But the fact that there's all of us being concerned and pouring all our opinions, mean there's an issue.
Not that it bothers me, like I said in the beginning. After all I myself blog about one every other day or so. The point is if: all of us, about 30? regular boogers? post as much as he does, imagine the speed of the page turning.
Yes I called the attention of the mods if it's against the rules : flooding.
Other than that, our life in the blog land goes on.
I don't read any if his post except one time. Or every once in a blue moon.
Common sense is what's my point.
I'm glad to hear you're OK Johnny
SR
Since It's intended for no comment, meaning just for themselves to read or hope others will read?
I'm not sure but one blog a day makes sense, or simply put it in the article section.
I think there's a lot going on besides just posting more than 5 a day.
10 or 12 on every page is so egotistical for me.
