Safer Blogging

Today is a sad day in the blogosphere. Today we lost a fantastic blogger. Today we wake up to ourself from our so called 'safe' anonymity behind our blogger nickname and rethink our situation in the blogosphere.

Blogging is like sex, you don't have to be good to enjoy it! Anybody can do it and everybody enjoys it either maintaining one or reading one. I've always approached blogging with a open mind and tolerated most jokes that people may put on me. Similarly I've always be careful not to poke too much fun at the expense of someone's good nature. I know when to pull back when I think I may be going too far coz everyone has a limit and we should respect that. And we should also be humble enough to apologize if we pushed the limit a bit too far.

If we get upset easily then we might as well watch TV. Threatening people's job and dropping big shot's name is just a bit too much! What do you get to show for? That you know people high high up? That you are so childish and you need some big shot to bring people down? What you've done is really uncalled for and I hope you see that one day.

Try to have a good weekend everyone...

Mr Wuching, due to unforeseen circumstances, Amelia can't go online today so she requested that I do it on her behalf.
Mr Jeremy C told her that he won't be checking on his own blog anymore. So she requests that her message for Mr Jeremy C be posted here.


"Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over
Hey now, hey now
When the world comes in
They come, they come
To build a wall between us
We know they won't win"

Jeremy...that last line in the chorus says it all... Why do you let them win?


This message is posted on behalf of Amelia.

Yeah....I agree with you man. Blogging is supposed to be fun. There's no need for threats being made...especially over petty issues. Though personally, I feel that if a person wants to put up a blog...he must be open minded enough to accept criticism. After all, why post it on the world wide web if it is not for everyone to view and comment? Sarcasm/slander is almost unavoidable in such circumstances as some idiots are just born to be god damn sarcastic and critical of every other persons view. So either ignore these comments or be sarcastic back at them. But whatever it is...it should all be for fun and for a good laugh....To polish ur debating skills and blah blah blah but u should never show ur anger of being offended. When a debate reaches the boiling point just drop it...no one can win. There's no point arguing with these people cos making u angry is what they intended for in the first place. Showing your anger will just make them happier. So my advise to all bloggers out there....be cool and be open minded. Accept or ignore all criticism and slander by commenters...just don't get offended... move on.

As for me, I don't blog cos I know I ain't open minded enuff and people who offend me will find their house burned to ashes by the next morning. Haha..jk.

Btw...Wuching, i sincerely hope that rubber isn't used...so jijik lar u. Haha.

*sniff* I barely know Jeremy but I love him already. He's truly a fantastic blogger. ei... Jeremy.... I know I posted this on your comment box TWICE, but since you don't check there anymore, I'll post here instead.

PLEASE COME BACK! Don't break a girl's heart, I tell you.

You're made of stronger stuff than this. I know what that gal said is so hurtful and humiliating, but we live and learn. What doesn't kill you, should make you stronger. The world is full of all kinds of ppl, some with great self-esteem and great sense of humour, some with superiority complex and sensitivity issues. Be a better man, and rise above it. Don't abandon blogsphere just because someone flamed you. Remember, there's only one of her and many of us. As for her threat about your job holding you back, then there's nothing we can do about that, but it's just disgustingly low.

Ultimately it's your decision to leave or stay, but I hope you stay, and if you do decide to leave... well, I'll miss you a lot. I barely know you, yet you made an impression on me because you were so polite and nice to me. Thank you for that.

I don't know all the details n d reasons for J to quit all of a sudden and its kinda sad if its due to one stewpig Bitch!

I had ppl crapped at my comment box and the bastard/bitch even managed to get hold of my personal hp number and yunno what crap SMSes I started getting!

Wanna know wat I did?

I IGNORED 'em all!!!

These pathetic cowardly ppl are not worth it at all and should be ignored totally.

I survived and lived to blog another day much to their chagrins and frustrations! In your face shitheads! hehe ;)

If I decided to quit; it would be solely for personal reasons or if i just got tired of it!

All the best J if you're reading this. Do whatever you have to do. Sleep on it for the moment! Take Care!
