It's not a problem when someone has 2 blogs up in the blog area at the same time, its a problem when it's AE or SoR because before you click on it, you know its a [girl] blog or a [stupid] blog with 0 time taken to create it, which makes me sad. I don't like shitting on other people, in fact I hate it, but most of their blogs are just terribad. I think the bullshit level will go down soon.
Blogshit is endemic throughout the internet, and always has been, throughout the shitosphere (erm, blogosphere). Blog is a four letter word, which if you get all numerological on it, will add up to shit.
There has not been a quality blog in the internet, ever. Some are very good, but still slip just below the limbo demarcation of "HOLY SHIT EVERYONE MUST READ THIS NOW SO THEIR EYEBALLS WILL EXPLODE FROM THE SHEER AWESOME!" I think that's the point of blogs, generally... it takes the place of journaling for the compulsive diarist. And have you read some of that crap from back when most everyone kept a diary? blech.
Girl blogs are the worst. Except for boy blogs. Except for impassioned pleas about the state of (insert race here). Except for all of the ways that BW/SC2/LoL/Dota2/WC3/Super Mario Bros is better than anything else. Except for any of my replies to any topic, ever.
TL; dr - it's all shit man. Some of it just smells better, or contains useful bits of information.

So true about blogging being the new journaling. It's even quicker to type than to write. Now you can get every single bit of the crazies out of your head daily, or multiple times a day with twitter/facebook/smartphones. That's where I really got sad. Now you can mini blog about the meal you just ate or the stupid song lyric you just heard. Everything is getting shorter and more compact and shitty : (
I remember keeping track of my university life back in first year. You know, what I did that day, how much my roommates suck, etc. Thought it would be nice to remember all the good times I had when I was 30 or 50 or whatever. Then in 2nd year I read it all and instantly tossed all the notebooks in the trash. A lot of nothing was written.

There's no definite way to stop the bullshit, but what we can do is report it. To those who have the report button, make use of it. To those that don't, PM the mods with the permalink. If we all do our part, TL can become better.

Out of curiosity, who doesn't have a report button?

Me. Hopefully in 27 days, I will have one.

hey! hey, you! you quoted him! he specifically said don't qu... wait... so did i! oh the humanity.
i am scared of losing my reporting priviligies, so my heart sinks everytime i do it. when it's already reported it's a bittersweet feeling, on one hand the report i just attempted was probably justified and my priviliges was never in danger, but on the other hand i was late to the party.

I'd say the vast majority of LoL players stay secluded in their little subforum to avoid overzealous Dota and SC2 fans.

Oh my god that picture of chill... I laughed so hard my room mates came over to ask what was up

What did your room mates think about it? Did they find it funny? Then what happened?

I feel this is accurate. I stay hidden in the LoL subforum and visit BW every once in a while to say hi to my old friends.

I know this is entirely shameless bump, but nobody reads the blog section anyway so I don't think it matters too much :D
Just want to point out that our hero is at it again

Nothing wrong with shitty blogs. They're self-contained, when you think about it. You have to go to their bullshit. Seems harmless.
My only complaint is that EA/SoR/TT/New guy comment on their own, and each others', blogs. Even though they're all the same person. Have some dignity!

This is saddening for me because the two of them made me look good by comparison. Ratings are after all relative.
