It is obviously why some people only blog - they can't take any opinions that differ to theirs and when they look too stupid, they just delete the whole blog. laugh

Way Way too much competition in both Blogs and Forums.

pedalguy59: Both invite postings but are self moderated in two different ways.
The thread has a ridiculous "Hide" option, which everyone looks at.
At least you can see differences of opinion, regardless if the OP
wants it or not. The Blog removes the different opinion completely,
leaving an entire Blog with people that completely agree with the
OP. How wonderful is that? Any ideas as to why it is set up
that way?


A few years back the blogs was not as it is today. It was riddled with controversy making the forums seem like the milder of the two to join in with. A couple of years ago they worked real hard to get the blogs calm. I do not know if that is when they gave the power to delete post or to make blogs that do not allow comments. But I believe there is a difference in blogs and forums.


fo·rum
'fôr?m/Submit
noun
1.
a place, meeting, or medium where ideas and views on a particular issue can be exchanged.
"it will be a forum for consumers to exchange their views on medical research"
synonyms: meeting, assembly, gathering, rally, conference, seminar, convention, symposium, colloquium, caucus; More





blog
bläg/
noun
1.
a regularly updated website or web page, typically one run by an individual or small group, that is written in an informal or conversational style.
verb
1.
add new material to or regularly update a blog.
"it's about a week since I last blogged"



One is conversation one is an exchange of opinions and ideas. Sometimes the exchanges actually leave the realm of conversation.
Thru out the years there have been many changes on this site. Each change showing how so many of us love change giggle <----sarcasm grin
I loved it when we could post links in the forum. They also quit showing how many views blogs have. I believe they might have felt the views were adding to the controversy in there. The more wilder the blog got the more the views. Same thing actually happens here in the forums. But not to the point of the way the blogs got.
I like both blogs and forum. Some of the people I like more than others. dunno But to think that the people in the blogs could not make it here in the forums is funny. Their interest just lies in different areas. I don't know if this has helped answer your question at all. hmmm Yet that is my idea of why laugh
