The Blogs They Are a-Changin'

judging people? you've never done that?

Why not allow all six methods? Save the method you last had chosen. Allow changing the method to any of the six at any time. I doubt anyone would be top of all six, making any ranking drama worthless and nonexistent. (would anyone brag, I'm top of method # 2, 3, & 5? ... No). People will choose the method that shows more of the blogging styles that they prefer, yet still have the option of checking the other methods when they are bored or curious. Visit my blog if you want to at thax013 and thank you very much!

Bullies and multiple troll files..are on the rise here. I know it is impossible to deal with all of them. But in my opinion, get rid of the blocking on blogs and magazine. As block and bully is on the rise..and is getting worse. Blocking was a great idea a while ago to protect some members from bullies. But the bullies and multi profilers tend to block and bully. How!! Look at the freinds list of the intented target, block all of them and then proceed to bully, insult, degrade and of course no one to bring it to your attention or stand up for you. Have a great horny day LUV

Why not just randomly select 20 blogs each day as "featured blogs", regardless of their quality or content? Maybe limit it to blogs that have been active in the past 30 days or some other time frame? All this judging on quality, length of comments, length of posts, etc... it just seems to unnecessarily complicate things. 2022... it HAS be better, right?!

Better to keep any reference to ranking or numbers in any form whatsoever out of the rotation. The reason behind the rotation was to wean bloggers/commentors from their obsession over the rankings. It's better to come up with a more random algorithm like the one you use for the roulette that's above the ranking list right now. Just the blogger's pic, post title are all that should be showing. Stay away from showing any numbers unless if it's in the title of the post or it's the date of posting. Keep the rotation random. If you find a way to include popular bloggers in the list, that opens a path to manipulation, which defeats the purpose. A formula's been worked out how to manipulate the rankings as it is. Scores just seem to go to some people's heads (as witnessed in this post). Someone mentioned they get over inflated egos, I fully agree with this. Something happens to the bloggers and their ego when they make the top of the list. It is for this reason I think all rankings and scoring needs to be done away with all together so no one feels superior. Apart from my watched blog list, cruising the Most Recent Post list is how I find new blogs. I stumble across a lot of good blogs that way and there is a huge variety of postings found.

My opinion is simple; I blog because I enjoy it and I hope to have some cool, funny or interesting discourse. My blog posts are probably not earth shaking in content but I like them. I don't need to be rated and don't care how you rotate them. So, whatever you do, I'm cool with it. I personally don't give a damn about the popular bloggers and their opinions and any need to be seen, heard or noticed. I write my blog because I enjoy it.

Rather than changing the ranking/scoring system it might help to change the layout. I suspect that for many the layout is such that (like me) when arriving to the blog home page the first two items that are noticed are "My Watched Blogs" and then "Active Blogs (by unique responses)" While "Actively Watched Blogs" is at the top of the column (and could probably stand to be expanded in both number and content - to match the other format with other recommendations) from my understanding the center of a screen/view is the prime real estate and receives the most attention. If it were solely my decision I'd add a section for official posts where "Actively Watched Blogs" is currently located (finding this post was purely chance on my part) and expand the "Actively Watched Blogs" to a list of about ~6 (while maintaining the same background logic) and drop "Active Blogs (by unique responses)" to lower on the page. It may not completely resolve any underlying issues, but it would (very likely) change the focus to a degree (pretty sure that I'm not the only one that doesn't scroll down the full length of the blog main page.

Change does'nt always work better for the whole community......just look at the new message centre on here, and what a disaster it has turned out to be, it does'nt even work properly half the time, lol. I think a change was needed for the blogs main page, i just hope it works properly when they introduce it to the site?

Well you can't call the cops. If you are blocked from the humilation and cyber bullies. If they got rid of the Damn blocking on the advice line. It would not errase it totally, but the intended target is out in the open vulnerable to attack from all sides. Now 300 against 1 is that right. If you go on the advice line you may see alot of members insulting other members to know end. and they can't defend themselves or even report exactly what is being said. Now if you have not free quented the advice line that often you would not see the amount of bullying directed at other members. So how can you call the cops if you are not in direct sight of the attack. And to prove it you have to find someone on here that has not been blocked and email them and ask then to forward it to you somehow. Have a great horny day LUV

I'm joining this discussion a bit late but I don't see the logical connection between visibility or frequency of blog posts equating to quality. They don't. The number of visitors and comments might equate to popularity but that doesn't mean the blog should be regarded as a quality blog. Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones

As a "bottom" dweller, so to say, I'm somewhat removed from any of this. Neither popular by responses, nor prolific a blogger, it will affect me little. But, I do see where top bloggers are coming from, having thier work labeled as "not quality" blogs, or "not popular" by responses. Anyone would feel slighted by these phrases! I vote for a status quo, study the system to see who deserves to be viewed, not picked by a computer that chooses them by set stadards or content, but by the bloggers that view them n enjoy thier works!

Please take your drama and your version of the truth back to your blog. This is not the post to continue all this drama nonsense, not just you Chuck, but all the comments just for fanning this flame. I doubt the poster (Ayrana? I forgot her name due to the extreme nonsense) is even reading this anymore, goodness knows I wanted to stop, but I continued on hoping that some resolution about the actual topic happened. Instead, I see accusations that I don't agree with. Maybe I'm just seeing it different, but all I've seen is Sandra replying to any comment that references her directly or indirectly. That's what she does, part of the reason so many people enjoy her blog. I have yet to see her actually initiate drama. I finally posted this here because I feel this post has been trashed and ignored by the poster. In essence, take your drama back to your own drama blogs and leave these improvement posts free of the mindless accusations, lies, and half-truths. Visit my blog if you want to at thax013 and thank you very much!

So you are the defining voice in what determines quality? And you are the final word on what the site is going to do with the lists? Then why did Aryana ask for input when all she had to do was email you? Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones

There's absolutely nothing wrong with my comprehension of what you said. Popularity and a large number of responses to a blog post does NOT equate to quality. A large number of responses could be a strong indicator of popularity but not necessarily quality. Here's an example: Look at the number of people who posted and responded to LesbianPersonals when they created the infamous "fuckaslut" website. There were a huge number of responses which meant that the topic was meaningful to many many people. It was not an indicator of quality by any means. Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

You're the one who seems to think she has the last and final word on what defines quality. Go back and read your own words. You seem to think your opinion is the only one that counts. You are one person. You are singular. You are not the majority. Nor am I. You have one vote. So do I. You're acting as "Miss Know it all" and if that's the case, then why should LesbianPersonals even have Aryana on staff when they could just simply call or email you. And you can make your proclamation across all of the land known as Blogville. Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones

I don't need any help or assistance in understanding your comments. I'm an intelligent, well-educated woman and a native English speaker. You're not doing yourself any service by repeating yourself and reposting the same old tripe. Just understand that I along with many other people do NOT agree with you and your definition of what constitutes a quality blog and we have the absolute right to disagree with you. You do not dictate the standards here. You are one person; a singular individual so please refrain from thinking and assuming that you speak for all of us. You don't. Never ignore those who care for you you will have lost diamonds while you were collecting stones
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

As it seems to be the essential part of a quality comment, I then repeat myself too: If you come here to discuss, be then open to discussion. Your blog, your rules; community blog, their rules. Accept that you get comments, questions etc here too. If you have no reply, no reasoning, no proof, your bad, not ours. Don't comment here if you are not ready to defend your views. Very simple rule or way of life. Outside your blog. Quote function works for your comments too, and this way you cannot say you didn't say anything like that. Shouting for help is not working here. You are a top blogger, you should know what to say and what to expect and not go hiding behind a mamma. Your desires are not a topic of this discussion. Only universal or also in Scotland Where to start my day or is it month Of course I39ll change I39ll do whatever you like Heatseeking missiles  Squirter's life
