Three years ago I was writing like the fiend that I am and covering or uncovering interesting and silly topics. I had made a grammar error and some dude went off in an essay about how I used an oxford comma wrong or something insipid like that. We all write and play Hive differently and in my hierarchy of life needs, pleasing everyone with perfect punctuation does NOT rate very high.
Which leads me to my Magnum Opus, "ANAL RETENTION IS MORE ANNOYING THEN MY UNFORMATTED FORMAT!". Some people want to do memes and songs and just display cool art, some want to write novels and both are valid. I'm going to rehash this GEM and hope you enjoy it as much as I did revisiting a time where posts made 500 dollars for just being amusing or in the "Golden Age" of blogging.
"This is an incentivized outlet and how YOU choose to use it is not up for debate in my personal opinion (which also means nothing so don't listen to me ;) ). People will think their work doesn't ever stink and feel compelled to give you unsolicited little pointers on how to do things. Get back to me in six months to see how many blowhards are still sticking around. Some say never stop posting or take breaks while others take time off and come back because imho, it is probably healthier to step away from the screen rather than becoming an anus retainus. <<<<(made up a word, oh noes!)
Wait , there is more... Everyone has a different style in the magical world of blogging. I don't find that being anal retentive and giving unsolicited advice is any better than letting people write how they damn well want to. There are guilds and groups who will sit for hours having pissing contests about how to structure your blog.
This is YOUR blog, not theirs......period
Others mean well but think that they are immune from having their wings clipped when they spout off on users because they feel like writing about whatever they freaking want to. If you are that concerned about how everyone else utilizes the platform you may be in dire need of unplugging and probably need to remove the log jammed up the area where the sun don't shine."
Now years later it seems the Grammar Nazis have chilled out and things have gone a little less serious and more to the fun side which is what half of us are on here to begin with. A sense of humor is needed if you want to play in the money game land and being primarily an investor means one can toy around a bit more with that FUN side
See you around with both a Hive Torch post and Part 2 of the Eris series and more topics being doodled about will drop later this week! Thanks and remember to Upvote and follow your local black sheep blogger!
