Anonymous User Comments


I can understand some Anonymous comments. Like if you’re talking about an embarrassing topic. But I’ve noticed that most Anonymous comments aren’t about something that may embarrass the commenter. Most of the time these Anonymous commenters are trying to a bad ass. If you’re going to take time out of your busy day to post lengthy comment trying drag down a person’s happiness, the least you could do is take ownership of the comment and leave your name on it. If you post a nasty comment on person’s blog as Anonymous, you’re not a bad ass. You’re a fucking coward.

I know you can be anyone you want on the internet, but don’t follow the crowd and try to be a bad ass under Anonymous user. I’m sure you’ve noticed that I have very comments on my blogs, if any at all, so you know I’m talking about personal experience this time. The thing that really gets me fired up is someone that ‘knows’ what the blogger’s intentions are better than the blogger does. Saying shit like their blog won’t grow their reader’s numbers or saying that writers don’t buy books. Well, I call bullshit. I’m not a well-known author, but I do have a book on amazon and I have hundreds of books and have read most of them.

I personally like reading other author’s blog because I like to see what works for them. Everyone has their own way of writing and breaking out of the dreaded Writer’s Block. What doesn’t for one, might work for another. Something that helps one author write might just help me out. You know if you don’t go searching. You might find someone that has a completely different writing style from your own and still end up to be good friends or just enjoy their blogs.

I personally think that these Anonymous users are just butt hurt. Something didn’t work for them, and now they’re trying to spread their grief and misery to others. I haven’t really done much with the writer’s groups personally, but I’m strong enough to admit that I just can’t come up with something to write about every week. In fact, the main reason I ever write a blog is let off steam when I see something such as these Anonymous cowards trying to break or change a blogger’s writing style or just generally talking shit about a certain blogger group. Jealously is such an ugly color for anyone to wear. Maybe these Anonymous users just haven’t found the right blogger group for them. Maybe if they stop trying to bring others down, they could find something that makes them happy in the blogger world.
