Blogtiquette

Posted in [Ramblings]

Just came back from my exercise, it’s good to go for exercise as I won’t be sleeping until 12 pm again. Just got my dad’s call saying that my courier to NUS sending them my matriculation card application form is undelivered as they don’t have NUS’s phone number. Funny thing is, this is not the first time I send courier without phone number. Today is the expiry date for sending the forms in and how great is that…

Anyway, my last post was about me being nominated for Ping of the Year for the post busted hustler. Talking about the post busted hustler which caused a chaos in PPS, there’s this die hard fans of hustler commented pseudonymously leaving me unfriendly comment on my blog, and somehow after some tracing job, I managed to find out who she is.

At first, I don’t really feel like wanting to talk about it, but after reading a post in her blog, seeing that she’s blogging otherwise and somehow since this is being brought up again, I will just post without disclosing who she is as my intention is not to start a war with her. This blogger left me such bad comments on my blog but yet she blogged talkin about how noble blogtiquette she has on her own blog. She said malaysian blogger’s mentality are still at a very disappointing level, yes indeed. She too said don’t be too arrogant with your comments and she plead others to respect bloggers because you are at their site. She said “if you don’t like their blog you should just keep quiet”. Anyway, whatever she said in her blog is obviously to defense hustler. I noticed that she too left some nasty comments at some other’s blog using different name.

Here’s the comment I get from Junie
Junie\'s Comment Quoted from the post Busted Hustler

Here’s 2 quotes from her blog

It is true that not one person will be on the same wavelength as the other. But what happened to blogtiquette? I mean, it’s not wrong that you’re a super straightforward person when commenting but pleaselah do it with manners. Don’t be too arrogant with your comments on other ppl’s blog. Respect them because you’re in their site. If you have something less than nice to say and you’re gonna make it super long, do it at your own space. If you don’t have a space of your own, go make one. If not, make your comments short and do not mock the blogger. If you can’t do either of them…go bang your head to the wall and keep your comments to yourself.

Quoted from Junie’s post

It’s the same here too, if you don’t like my content, you can either choose to NOT visit my site..if you do, you should just be an invisible visitor (meaning, one who reads and just keeps quiet) Just like the example I gave just now, you might still see that person you don’t like (he’s prolly in the same circle of friends), if you do not have anything nice to say, you might as well just shut up?

Quoted from another post by Junie

Just a note to Junie, i’m not trying to start a blog war with you, but next time, please don’t change a name and comment nastily at people’s blog, assuming that people won’t know who you are then later on blog about oh, you care so much about blogtiquette. Aint all this the description of the h word? Anyway, good luck and all the best to you in blogging and your blogtiquette.


Kid Chan

Posted in [Ramblings]

I’ve always admire the talent of Kid Chan, my ultimate dream is to be able to be a wedding photographer some day. Though what I’m going to pursue is faraway from being a wedding photographer, but I plan to retire young, and soon after I’m financially secured, being a wedding photographer is what I’m going to do.

Anyway, Kid Chan, if you are reading this, give me some guidance how to be like you. What does it takes to be in that career and what do I need as in skills and etc? My father don’t own a photoshop like my best friend does, so hopefully, one day, I could open up a company specialising in wedding stuff. It’s nice to see 2 people tying their knots together. I’ve got it in my head. ;)

Anyway, Kid Chan started his own website with his own domain. Nice one with his best work and stuff about him. Check it out at
