It's been a while since my first post(4 months to be exact). But it didn't take that long for me to realize how hard it is to be a blogger(especially in Pbfantasy). Way harder than I imagined. I had circled the wagon against harsh comments and unwanted suggestions. The blogging section here is not for the faint of heart(kudos to those 14-year old kids who are not exempted to the flurry of negative comments in their works). Hours of thinking and polishing in what you thought was the "best blog ever" goes down the drain as you are rewarded with an amazing 1-star rate together with the "your-blog-is-trash" comment. Two words. So Filipino. Ever wonder who these losers are? Those who rate your blog with a 1(thank you very much) and comment things like; &*#&!@#$&* @&*(@$? These people are actually bloggers who don't appreciate articles other than the ones written by themselves. They think the only way they could look good(blogging-wise) is by making other blogger's work look bad. Still don't get it? Another two words. Crab mentality.
Well you can't please everybody(it's been their comforting comment after saying something bad about your work) but to hell with their profanities and below-the-belt assaults.
Yes, there is no way you could please loyal Ginebra fans after writing a bold prediction that a certain team(perhaps your favorite) will win against the highly-favored Gin Kings squad. There is no way James Yap fans will rate you with the highest star possible after submitting an article saying he's not MVP-material. But they could be at least less reactive and more reasonable.
The blogging section is a place where an exchange of ideas takes place. It is never a battle ground nor a place for competition.
I'm still clueless as to what would your response be after this blog is published. But I'm pretty sure of one thing, "it's hard to be a blogger".
