Updates: I added 2 new articles and answered some more advice submissions. Thanks guys, keep them coming! Wow, have any of you noticed that every time I blog I have some updates for you guys? And I blog every 3-6 days. Not bad, right? I think I’m gonna try to make that 2-5 instead. I need to stop procrastinating, lol.

Anyway, you’re probably wondering what this post is really about. Well, I was thinking about the way I approach others on the net and realized that there may be some misunderstandings about my persona. I leave comments on sites here and there, and try to visit often. Everything is fine until I say something like “I like the new layout, but the colors are too bright.” The web owner goes all crazy on me and starts saying I’m this and that, blah blah blah.

The funny thing is that there’s only one person who has had a weird, and unexpected reaction to something I’ve said. It wasn’t about a layout, that was just an example, but it made me think about the way I say things. And I actually think I’m pretty nice and not rude at all, even when I’m disagreeing with something. I mean, how can you disagree and sound nice at the same time? It’s hard to avoid sounding like a mean bitch online. I can’t just be LOL-ing after every sentence, you know.

These are a few things I would like you guys to know in advance about the way I talk/comment online.

-First of all, I don’t kiss anybody’s ass. Even if you’re popular, I’ll tell it how it is.
-I’m never rude when disagreeing with something.
-I don’t tell you I don’t like something on your site because I want to bother you; I say it because you asked.
-If I don’t like your layout I’ll tell you why and if it applies, I might tell you what could be changed, but it is, after all, my opinion, so you don’t have to take my advice if you don’t want to.
-I’m not one of those people that say nice things to others just to look good. But of course, if I like something I’ll tell you, even if it’s not mentioned in your blog. (I do that a lot, actually. Like “Hey, I like your smilies!”, for example.)
-I don’t like to start drama. I’m very opinionated, that’s all.
-You may think I’m a very negative commenter, but I’m really not… At least I’m not rude or fake.

Ok, that’s all. I hope anyone who feels like I’ve been mean to them understands that it’s nothing personal and that I was not trying to be mean at all. I doubt a lot of people feel that way but still, just in case.
