Amen. We're not the motivation trains and teen help lines for people who aren't even good that feel they need to blog about their achievements and progress on ICCup. Save that for the good people, and even then I don't feel it should be as frequent.

Yea but maybe they get more motivation just by writing down what they have achieved.
I don't read that shit, and I don't write that shit either.
but can someone tell me what is wrong with those iccup-blogs?

I thought that blogs are ment for writing about some theme with your personal view. no?

They can just as easily write it on a piece of paper or save it in a notepad .txt, they just want others to see it too, and therein lies the vanity of it.

And what is wrong with that? I don't get it.
it's fun to know people could read about your "achievements", even tho I think there's not many people interested about random newbs playing iCCup :D

Imo it's good if they get their motivation from somewhere, bw doesn't have too many active players...

Agreed. Writing bitching/moaning/useless/egotistical/emo/attention-seeking crap is the whole point of a blog. (And YES, including my own....)

Yeah

I don't like to read blogs myself, and I don't write one neither,
but why forbid something that can make other people happy if it doesn't hurt anyone else?

Because it gets to be to fucking much. Why are you select few having a hard time with that concept. There was a massive spurt of iCCup blogs all of a sudden. It was annoying as hell. The people who took time to make more meaningful blogs got drown out because of it.

I don't even think Rekrul reads blogs, and he was fucking sick of it.

Are you fucking retarded? Do you know what a blog is? There shouldn't be blogs on TL.net if this is the general consensus. Obviously if you write a fucking blog you want other people to see it. Obviously can write it on a sheet of paper or a diary.

I'm not usually so rude but you're such a shitty and douchebag poster that it makes me overreact

I think you should calm down, I merely expressed my opinion in a civilized manner. I also think you should re-read this conversation and see which one of us is a "douchebag poster" in this case; I didn't say what I said to start some sort of argument, I just said it in support of the general sentiment of this blog. Trying to justify your foul language and attitude by saying that I'm a shitty poster doesn't help your case, in fact I believe it makes you look immature. If you wish to say something to me in response to this, please feel free to PM me, so that this drama doesn't continue, as I intend to fully ignore anything you have to say. Thank you.
