Fair Weather Follies

You know something, some people are so narcissistic they think that everything is done for them and to change something without notifying them is a crime against them. This is exactly what has happened since I too this blog to a one person forum.

When I started this site I had a core set of people that would write and share here. Since then the number of contributors has dropped to practically none. It became so bad that there was just no reason for me to support additional bloggers, especially those that do not know any HTML and cannot follow simple instructions. Why am I bothering? In short, I’m not anymore.

So, I posted a brief message that I would discontinue the multi-bloggers on Miasma of Musings and waited for a response. There was none. I closed the site to bloggers other than me.

The worst part about it is the some people think I did it to spite them. That they could just willy-nilly come here and post something as they pleased and everything would be ok. I started this site to get good writing away from AFF, that did not happen so why wouldn’t I close the site.

Besides, I do not get paid for this and in fact it costs me money to run this (these) site. If anyone wants to contribute real money then maybe I will consider opening it up. After all, I had intended to charge blogger to enter on this site. Did you know this site is pinged and logged by all major search engines AND blog directories? Do you know how much time it took to do that? Does anyone have a clue as to the amount of work I had to go through to get this site to look as good as it does? Do you even know that I had to write three pieces of software to do it? Did you know that these software modules are now used all around the world?

So, I will do exactly as I please and NO ONE has the right to bitch or complain, especially fair weather friends that promise to support the site with writing and never do. Those that promise to comment and be a part of the community and never comment or be part of the community are completely without justification when it comes to how I will run this site.

This was a refuge for those who wanted it, but if it was rarely used what did you really expect? For months I have been the only one blogging here, so that is just the way it is. The topics I cover are not fluff and sweetness, but rather I look at events and true emotions and creative writing. I am done with fluff, I am done with worrying about what junk may end up being posted here.

To that end I know I have my readers. I know there are about 600 people that continually show up and read what I have to say. Few comment, but I see your IP and I track you. So keep reading and I will keep writing. Oh, and thank for the trackbacks on Salon, MSNBC, and Hardblogger.

This is my site. You, the complainers, do not have the right to make me feel bad about it.
