Weblog Tools Collection – Bullshitters Extraordinaires
January 25th, 2010
If you have any of your blogs powered by WordPress then you are more or less familiar with the website called Weblog Tools Collection. Weblog Tools Collection is painstakingly forced in the face of each WordPress user through RSS feeds implemented into the admin’s interface. While those are editable, most average users would not know how to go about it to get rid of Weblog Tools Collection RSS feed and many of those who have required expertise simply don’t have time to deal with it and just put up with it. After years of WordPress use and concurrent exposure to Weblog Tools Collection through admin interface I’ve followed articles posted by this website and if I were to sum them up in a single word, I’d use “useless”. Information value, or just about any value provided by mindless ramblings of Weblog Tools Collection contributors is virtually non existent. You have nothing to take from it and after reading any of their articles you never feel like you have learned something valuable. It’s always a pile of senseless crap that does nothing but feed egos of people behind this worthless website.
Besides lacking value, Weblog Tools Collection contributors and admins are five star bullshitters extraordinaires. Devil would wear down six pairs of boots to find bullshitter extraordinaires of comparable qualities. In recent article written by Mark Ghosh titled “Are You Spamming Comments Inadvertently?” Weblog Tools Collection once again demonstrates that they don’t put money where their mouth is. The article talks about importance of comments and how Weblog Tools Collection values quality comments and how they reward quality commenters blah blah blah. The only trick is that anyone who’s ever commented on Weblog Tools Collection articles and didn’t deliver an ass kissing charade saw their comment marked as spam, deleted or modified (at minimum by having the URL removed). Hypocrisy of Weblog Tools Collection admins knows no limits in this regard. As a result, comments found on Weblog Tools Collection are of as low quality as articles themselves. Because the only way to get guaranteed approval of your comment is to post something like this:
Oh yeah, I totally agree with you. I could have never said it better. You are a God for bringing this up…
It is undisputable that Weblog Tools Collection admins are in it to feed their own egos and when their egos are hurt, they deal with it by utilizing their admin privileges. All that on a blog that’s forced into every WordPress user’s face. And then after all is said and done, Mark Ghosh has the nerve to come up and post an article about how the community is important to them and preach about proper commenting etiquette. Bullshitters extraprdinaires who perfected the art of bullshitting right there. Their biased, ego feeding comment censorship would be fine in my books if it wasn’t accompanied by hypocritical preaching on how commenting and comment moderating should be done.
