Comments on: ALERT: (Updates) Death Match Kuwait Times vs Blogger(s) http://www.chillnite.com/alert-death-match-kuwait-times-vs-bloggers Kuwait Life, Lifestyle, Classifieds, Jobs & Reviews | ChillNite.com Wed, 07 Jan 2009 10:20:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: 1001 Nights http://www.chillnite.com/alert-death-match-kuwait-times-vs-bloggers#comment-62086 1001 Nights Thu, 15 Nov 2007 20:34:12 +0000 http://www.chillnite.com/alert-death-match-kuwait-times-vs-bloggers#comment-62086 I am surprised at your reaction. I don’t think this is a death match at all, it sounds more to me like the writer is <b>advocating</b> blogs. Look at these two quotes: “You can say anything you want on the blog, but be prepared to hear things said about you. If this is a difficult task to endure, I say do not visit that blog anymore.” And this second quote: “To put it succinctly, the blog is awful, and will never have the public opinion weight that <b>other Kuwaiti blogs have.</b>” The first quote sounds like something bloggers often say when their blogs get criticized. She’s saying the same thing. If you don’t like the blog move on. How is that offensive to blogging? I'm just puzzled here. In the second quote she shows her recognition of the public opinion weight other blogs have by contrasting it with whatever awful blog she’s talking about. And there’s no link to that blog she’s describing so she’s not even openly criticizing it in the article. Sometimes I blog about work-related issues too but never have I actually written someone’s name on my blog. It can’t be right to massacre some guy’s name while hiding comfortably behind an alias. I just worry that one day blogs will go as far having a male blogger try to ruin a girl’s rep because she said no to dating him or having an employee blogging about his boss being a thief because he didn't promote him etc. Then we can talk about death matches :P<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('62086','1001 Nights'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('62086','1001 Nights','I am surprised at your reaction.
