The Blog About Pointless Blogs

By Howy420 on September 1, 2009, 2:45 pm

Hello fellow G1's, tonight I am going to talk about something I've been thinking about for a little bit now. It just seems this is the appropriate time considering the amount of pointless blogs im seeing go up latly, especially tonight. I know theres always pointless blogs but Im on SA quite alot, I personally don't blog all that much but I read quite a bit so I definitly have noticed a increase about pointless blogs. I was thinking about it and I was wondering what drives people to do this so I decided to devise somewhat of a list of diffrent blogs. Some are obviously just posted in the wrong place and the person not knowing very well what a blog is, or just not very smart in general decides to post it in the blog section as opposed to the forums. Others are just very ment to be posted as blogs but as people but umm... jokes? I guess, Im talking about the blogs that go something like this "HAY GUEYS WANA PLEY SOM GAYMES??? I amverycool. ThAnKsYoUsFoRrEaDiNg." but these jokes are only laughed at by the people who posted them.... sadly I dont think they really know that. Theres also a third type of blog where someone dose a fairly long blog, its to short to be considered forum worthy but its also just flat out a bad blog. I specificly remeber reading a list a day or two ago (not going to name name's) where someone was making top 5 list of something which is fine don't get me wrong alot of people do top 5 or 10 llists or what have you, but this person was making a list... and heres rougly what they said I dont really want to quote them. I haven't played this game but this internet celeberty guy said it was BAD so im gona stay away from it but it is one of the worst games ever. So... he was making list which was trying to be in order.. and put a game on he had never played, dosen't this sort of defy the purpose of a list, don't you have to actually play the games to give a opinion or a rating? I guess this has turned it to somewhat of a rant but please bare with me ahaha. The last type of blog is the repeat blog. Something where someones clearly posted something and like 100 other people feel the need and urge to repost there own version of it for example.... yesterday morning, I cant really say how many because I diden't click on many but ALOT of people created a blog about the disney/marvel deal, Im not saying they were all bad at all but some were posted within 20 or 30 minuets of eachother and multiple times. Im not saying these are totally pointless because yes some are informative and not bad blogs, but if I've already read about it today chances are I dont wana read a second top on the flavour of the day. Anyways my blog about pointless blogs is coming to a end so I than you for reading, I know this is someone a pointless blog but I figured its something I haven't seen done so I would give it a try. Thanks for reading G1 Howy420

that top 5 blog was ok but was way too short. where i will be trying to make one blog when i'm free, got good idea (will be most likely a list) and will try not to **** up with bad spelling or putting lol in it {damn i hate that word so much}

and what about guys seeing a long top hundred and copy it and **** it up. but not just one not two but 4 different people do nearly same blog but just games switched around.

and best pointless blog that wasn't actual pointless (makes no sense what so ever0

Nice! And yeah I don't like it when people repost old blogs because then that just means they ran out of ideas, I can only see it as a good thing if they completely made it better, but then they should just change the title and then it's not really a re-post.

The past is the past, no need to change it is what I'm saying.

It's probably easy to do. Sudden news pops up, people are like, "WTF!?" and decide they want to share it with ScrewAttack. At the same time, other people want to do the same thing. So what happens? People are writing on the same subject, at the same time, then post it about the same time as the others.

You see, these are fine as long as the G1 isn't restating other peoples' blogs.

If it's their own experience, their own opinion, it should be treated as a different blog.

Yeah, it gets very upsetting when I post one of my videos, which take me days to make, only to see it pushed off the page by one-line blogs. And then I only get one comment. Argh...

You updated this blog, which caused it to lose top post position. I think it's a glitch, It's not good to edit while in top post, or the blog drops off.

I thought this was a little obvious, but I guess people just enjoy making worthless blogs. It's good your blog is top-posted, maybe idiots will get a clue and not start randomly posting 4 word blogs.
