Question for bloghi.com
I can't seem to find an email address to contact them so if anyone has one,
please let me know. Here is what I have to say:
I have been reading posts and comments in the last few days.
Based on my knowledge a blog is by definition an
expression and exchange of ideas.
You are clearly not running your site so that people can take
advantage of it for free commercial advertising.
Looking at your splog report list, you have rejected several reports
about commercial advertising blogs.
One in particular is particularly a violator: http://juliejalone.bloghi.com/
This person uses her real name,
links to her other websites and blatantly advertises. If you google her name,
you will find that yours is one
of many blog sites she trawls. I respectfully request that you delete her blog.
Next, my feeling is that you
should not permit blogs that do not allow comments. Blogs are supposed to
be an exchange of ideas. For example,
if someone expresses an opinion on which another has a different opinion,
there should be an opportunity to
express that opinion. If the original writer doesn't like it, they should not post.
By allowing users of your site to
cancel the ability to make a comment in response you are permitting
someone who wants to control a monologue free server space. Anyone who
wants a monologue should pay for it.
This would also apply to the deletion of comments by the blog author. My
request is that you delete these one way
street blogs for example this one: http://soonerbeblue.bloghi.com/
Of course bloghi.com has the right to delete any blogs, posts and comments
that violate the bloghi.com terms of service and simple decency.
I would appreciate your considering these points and hopefully take the
suggested action. I would also appreciate
your thoughts regarding the above.
Respectfully, a loyal patron
