Blog Comments


I have had this blog for around 2 weeks now and the number of views I have has just gone over 1000 in the last few days. This number has made me fairly pleased that even a few people are taking a small chunk of their day to read what I have had to say.



So to those people - Thank you.



Now of course nobody is perfect and nobody never gets tired or has lazy days. Yes, I have written a few of my blogs when in a lazy mood or just about to go to bed for some sleep.

However this does not give people, where ever you are from, the right to slander the writer.

The only complaint I have against blogging is the Anonymous profile that lets you attack anyone you like at will and my only problem lies with those who dare not show their faces by showing a name other than Anonymous, as everybody in my belief has the right to face their accuser.

For instance - A professor of economics had a right go at me for my EU blog post. He decided to go on a rant about how I was illogical and ill informed. It’s fine for him to sit on his chair in a university somewhere and rave and rant. I defined my opinion and I also stated that is was most probably a narrow minded view.

However if this professor had been not under the guise of Mr Anonymous he would have had to think about his attitude towards other on their blogs.



Why is it that whoever runs this site doesn't just scrap the Anonymous profile and has a guest profile which requires them to enter a name so it can be distinguished from other comments posted. After all I’d be nice to know who you are talking to don’t you think??



Comments??

  1. i think that anonymous comments are good because you have to treat everyone like equals and not discriminate against them. also i stops you from knowing who i really am, which is an added bonus!

  2. True but many people wouldn't discriminate unless the commentor was a repeat offender.

  3. I am not the university professor, but I read his comment and your argument back to that, and quite frankly you lied. GDP figures are not hard to find and you are just trying to find some way of defending yourself against criticism, which was well deserved. You should look up information before writing an article on something, in order to make sure it is factually correct. Although blogs are opinionated, you cannot just lie and say things which clearly aren’t true.

  4. I didn't lie. I actually couldn't find the stats in the time I had.

    And trust me now that I am on my break from university I will be researching mytopics more.

    But for this blog. My point still stands.

  6. your blog is dull, boring and opinions are backed up with little evidence. It is an overall poor read and i am dissapointed to call you a fellow blogger
