Karma Block and Private Blogs
A few days ago I did a blog about still blogging in public. It appears that liberals are the only ones that still do it. There are a few others that also still blog in public and I commend them even though I disagree with their politics.
I have unblocked everyone that was blocked due to the new “karma” block feature. Some of you I don’t even know and have never even conversed with you. Did some leader tell you to block us in a “private” blog? Are they afraid that if you listen to us you may agree with us?
Yes I still have one person blocked. I even unblocked him, but he abused that and ended up being blocked again.
Since I am blocked by you, you will never see this blog, but maybe one of your friends who have not yet blocked me will bring it to your attention and yes, since I don’t have you blocked you can comment.
In the past I have blocked some that I should not have. I did so in a misguided belief that I had to take sides in conflicts between friends. I apologize to those that I blocked and deleted.
I understand sometimes a block is the only way to get away from complete idiots who have no real interest in communication. It’s starting to look like inside prison in here though, the whites, the blacks, the mexicans, etc., only in here it’s more on ideology lines. Ridiculous. Soon there’ll be 6 people on all of Friendburst we can talk to. Where are all those thousand of people we haven’t heard from? 😐
If someone blocks me without getting to know me, I assume they’re saving me time and a headache. But then I can be quite cynical.
Hey John ….they block us in private blogs because they are not haters like they accuse us of being,,,,,lolol
Fine with me though bro ,the less I have to hear from them the better…..
See I am at the opposite end of the spectrum of which you now speak,while I will tone back on my own disagreements with them,I will still have the same amount of revulsion for what the continually preach…I say more power the the Private blogs that they now embrace … 😉
I confess that I don’t know 100% of all that is going on….but I have a good idea. I’m sorry for those that block all of you and wont even give you the chance to speak or comment. While I support everyone’s right to do whatever they want on their own blogs, I also don’t think it’s right to post a blog about an issue that you KNOW will be debatable and then keep it limited to only just a few who can comment on it. What’s the point? Isn’t the reason we write and post blogs to begin with because we have a topic that we have a strong opinion on and we want to share that opinion as well as hear the opinions of others? If that isn’t what you want to have happen…..why post it publicly at all in any way??
*2 Kudos*
so now if the blockees are blocked, they cant read your blogs unless what? they knock your block off?
hahahaha!!!! 😆
I’m pretty peachy with it 😛
I have one guy that made it where I can read his blog, but cannot leave a comment. Now, he completely blocked me from his blogs. I do not understand it. Dude can read my blogs and leave comments… Should I block him just to give him a taste of his own medicine? No….I am not going to play his stupid games…
I have some friends that would never have gotten to know me if there had been a Karma block. I have seen reasonable and civil discussion between people of opposing view points and even some conversions. These things can only happen when people listen to other people regardless of persuasion.
Who are these people who are not blogging in public?
Whenever I blog I always blog in sight. Never have blogged in private. I dont blog here anymore anyway…Blog elsewhere…where things are a bit more “even”. This place is all one sided. Convince me differently, not that I would be interested.
Who blogs in private?
I hear all this BS about freedom of choice on this site. But where is my choice when it comes to someone blocking me? It should be my choice to block them, not some automated process. What kind of choice is that?
There is none is there?
