.... If you're going to vote me down, at least maybe reply and say why? I honestly thought I was trying to help out here. I started reading his articles, was super offended multiple times in quick succession, and thought I'd report that his work did not in any way reflect well on wow.com...

Did I do something wrong?

i won't vote you down, but i will say i disagree with you. i love his blog. he brings an attitude of pure enjoyment of the game, plus lots of great info and links, that makes him one of my go-to reads. i agree his style may not be for everyone, but for me, he's awesome.

Voted down for being a troll post maybe?

I took 2min to glance around the front page of his blog and found ...nothing that a reasonable person would object to.

*blank stare*

*shrug*

Hey Vandersveldt, I heard that you weren't happy and I'd love to know why.

I know my recent posts have been angry (with good reason), and my emotion has shone through in sentiment and language.

Anyway, rather than marking you down, I'd like to mark you up for saying you piece.

While I wont promise that I will change my style, I would love to know what it is that upsets you enough to post such a comment.

Feel free to let me know via ContactGnome on the blog.

Gnomer & Out!

There have been recent updates since my first post, and maybe the new ones are the norm. I just know I went to the very first mage post, and what I got was F this, F that, and I hate blizzard.

Yeah the more recent ones are closer to the style and tone of the previous 600odd posts.

Every now and then something happens that gets to me. Account hacking and the disruption of peoples game for fun are two topics that I feel passionate about (OK, in these two examples I was beyond passionate, rather, extremely angry) and I vented.

As public as the blog may be for the viewer, it's my personal space as a writer. Most bloggers at some point in time feel the need to vent, but that doesn't make the rest of the content invalid.

Anyway.. thanks for speaking up, not once but 3 times, you are definitely not a troll and I appreciate your strength of character to speak up.

Well thanks for your kind words sir. I had never read your blog before that point, and I guess it was just bad timing on my part :-P First impressions are strong, and the first impressions were 3 very negative posts. I apologize for reporting the entirety of your blog as negative energy instead of reading through more posts first
