Blog Stalkers -- by Douglas ChickBlogging is short for web logging. Blogging is a forum where people post personal thoughts, web links, and opinion…but mostly opinion…a lot of opinion. If you are reading this, you are reading my blog. Once a blog is posted, it is up to its readers to qualify it as truth, lie, or opinion. There is generally a healthy exchanged of idea’s, sometimes followed by a somewhat heated debate of ideology, and in many cases it becomes personal.

Blog Stalkers, or blog bullies are bloggers that attack every post, fill the blog with page after page of almost incoherent ranting, (mostly angry rants regarding liberals or Bush/Cheney being Satan) and frightening away others from posting their opinions because they don’t want to be attacked, or worse…

Fox has 31 blogs in 31 cities. I have visited and read the posts of all 31. And in every city there is always one or two “Blog Stalkers” that control the mood of these websites, beat down its readers, and bully their opinions until their victims do not want to post anymore. Most blog stalkers or blog bullies use pictures of the flag, an eagle or a gun as their icon. I spoke with one Fox reporter who told me that they have ejected many blog stalkers, but only to see them return under yet another anyonomous name.

What has been your experiences with Blog Stalkers?

So called blog stalkers are found all over the internet. Even here I have seen them. When I first started blogging here or anywhere else I took it personal. As time went by I found just dismissing them was my best solution. I try to stay away from topics that attract these type of people.

I can be negative in some of my responses, because I'm quite opinionated. Some relate my blunt responses as negative. I met my match about six months ago, butting heads with a difference of opinion. The blogger then followed me on every comment I made anywhere else. I quit blogging for about a month. I come to the computer for enlightenment and a chance to gain tidbits of knowledge. Not looking for a hassle. I like the banter of our large slice of humanity, with the multitudes of ages and diversity. It is entertaining. Besides that one incident, I feel that those I blog with on this site, seem to have similar goals and aspirations. The political process is humorous. Being a native of the south, it's good to see the heritage alive and well. We should be proud of our diversity. It makes us North Carolinians.

Diverse opinion and the right to express it; is what makes our nation great. I welcome the opposing view, as long as it does not become a personal attack.

Walk in the dirt of this area, and remember those who came before us that fought untold harm and hardship to give us the right of free speech, and when you celebrate that right remember them.
