Wazzup Pilipinas!
"I keep telling myself "Don't let anybody tell you that you're doing things all wrong when you know that things are doing great for you. If you listened to the others telling you to hold back and keep a low profile, you wouldn't be enjoying the perks and benefits right now."Ironically, those who are saying that it is not a good trait to rant online are the ones who also rant against fellow bloggers. They don't even have the guts to identify themselves and hiding behind an "Anonymous" identity. We are not asking them to side with a fellow blogger, We are asking them to hear us out first before coming up with conclusions.
Yeah, there may be some hiccups along the way but that's normal for a struggling noobie whose adventure along unpredictable paths has just began. One thing for sure is that I'm headed to only one direction and on my way to a brighter future - and nobody can stop me no matter how hard they try!!!"
Wazzup Pilipinas was ranting against an establishment that tried to go cheap-O with bloggers, but there's this group of bloggers that are now ranting against Wazzup Pilipinas, and also trying to humiliate the bloggers associated with the blog or community. We must announce that the bloggers invited to the event had no knowledge of any of the arrangement between Wazzup Pilipinas and the owners of the establishment. These bloggers should not be dragged along with the issue.
Sadly, these detractors never even tried to hear the side of Wazzup Pilipinas and just relied on the said "vicious post" of Wazzup Pilipinas, and may be they just heard "one-sided" comments, hearsay and rumors. Some of them even mentioned the issue on their own blogs, probably to gain more attention, or to really make Wazzup Pilipinas look bad.
Wow! Talk about joining the bandwagon to get some attention.
Some of them are saying that these could all have been settled amicably, yet they seem to lack the initiative to settle these issue against Wazzup Pilipinas amicably themselves.
There is a new online game that's gaining popularity and even overlapping the fame of "Plants versus Zombies", and its being called by a fellow blogger as "Rants versus Rants".
"Have you heard about the latest craze that just surpassed the popularity of Plants vs Zombies?

Wazzup Pilipinas official statement: Blogs were supposed to share the real score, the real sentiments, the real facts, the real experiences. We should be able to "rant" if we were displeased, the same way we "rave" if we were pleased, with a person, product or service - or even an establishment.
Now with regards to how blogging should be done: We all have our own style because we are all unique individuals. No one has the authority to declare what is the proper way to blog, including us. Everything we all grew up with were all man-made rules and guidelines.
So to all those who think of themselves a better "league" of bloggers. You are better off to be called "boogers".
Why? Because you try to clog with accumulated dirt the nose that keeps the host breathing and alive.

I have been organizing several events for bloggers instead of just going to these events on my own because I wanted to share the opportunities. The event invites were all just for me but I keep trying to squeeze in others for a chance to gain their own invites.
ReplyDeleteMy bad luck that it sometimes gets interpreted negatively and causes others to doubt my intentions. But still I won't stop coz I've benefited more from this advocacy that's extremely way beyond from what I suffered from all these insults.
My only fault here is I reacted to a demeaning text message concerning the bloggers I invited. There could have been better ways to say each other piece but the emotions got the better of us.
Needless to say, there was fault in my part because I was too sensitive.
Thank you to those who believe in me. Thank you for this article.
Sana stop dragging the name of the business to this issue na lang.I felt bad for them,kasi they are less than a month-old business establishment,tapos nadamay pa sila sa ganitong klaseng issues ng mga bloggers.
ReplyDeleteYou know you're just starting, but writing more posts about this issue wouldn't solve anything. Pero kung gusto mo pa masira ang name mo pa lalo, sige lang ituloy mo pa.
ReplyDeletePeople keep forgetting its a community blog and that there are several bloggers here that have access to the admin account. Why would he comment on his own article if it was also written by him.
