I had a maths teacher who once taught me the acronym M I A G W M T R. Other pearls of wisdom that he imparted included why walk, when you can run?
Of course, I have taken no notice of the suggestions for a voluntary code for bloggers as suggested by some tool working for the Preth Complainths Commithun. The blogger known as disillusioned and bored expresses my sentiments succinctly enough. For the record, I have added one of his suggested tags to my blog.
Let me repeat, blogging is a game, we make the rules. Here are mine.
1. No profanities on obituaries
2. I will never refer to my professional life
3. I may on a whim amend or remove posts or comments to them without explanation
4. Anon bloggers will generally receive less respect.
5. For your guidance I may fail to reply to your comment for any one or combination of the following reasons - rudeness, time, boredom, acute embarassment, forgetfulness
6. The purpose of this blog is a moving feast. Updates will not be provided
7. All rules are subject to change. Updates will not be provided
lol..
ReplyDeleteThese are good rules.
ReplyDeleteI work on two rules - I blog about whatever I damned well please, and I ask my comment makers to avoid insulting each other. By and large rule 2 is upheld, although sometimes a reminder is necessary.
ReplyDeletei can vouch that the croydonian sticks to what he says..
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you say, and also Croydonian, although a good round of insults camn sometimes, or most times, avoid a long and drawn out commentary which is both boring and unneccessary...so I encourage insults to get it over and done with quickly.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to think of some of my own rules.
I have to admit a little guilt over No. 2 as it doesn't hurt to let one or two things out,otherwise people have no sort of idea of who or what you represent.
ReplyDeleteShotgun/James, As mentioned all rules are subject to change.
ReplyDeleteLove the rules :)
