All very true! Of course some blogs are very light on content but heavy on deal pimping. I do follow blogs that offer deals or links, but the ones I read only include those things as a small part of much greater content.

I think the wiki is being updated more often in here guys

Seeing TBB under the "censoring blogs" is, well, entertaining!

In all seriousness, who gives a s**t what the wiki here says? Is this thread... is this entire FORUM.. of any relevance whatsoever?

I'm going to have to add you to the Censors list for changing the naughty word to something with asterixses in it.

that is just **** ** **** **!

This happens to be THE most popular and influential IBB forum dedicated to points and miles bloggers and other service providers on the WHOLE INTERNETS!

Nope, that would be TBB

If FT hadn't shut down the blogger-basher threads your comment could have been true rather than tongue in cheek. In retrospect it would have been better to give that thread a 18 rating and just remove all moderation. It would have been the most fun thread on all of FT! Alas....

we can thank the moderators for that

To all: I just posted on TBB "Blog Buzz Section to Evolve"

As a friend on twitter said "It is an end of an era"

Deep down, I love everyone. Even those who will appear on my "Blogs I Ignore" list.

Mods: can we lock DeltaPoints into the censor section? Seems like the owner or someone backing them is on a campaign to keep changing this wiki back. argh.

I can assure from experience as well as others in the DL world that DeltaPoints blog does indeed censor comments challenging the factual accuracy of their posts.

And ever since, the blogosphere has reverted to unfettered pimping and business as usual. #FAIL

Actually, that never stopped imho.

May never have stopped, but at least some of the biggest pimp's feet were put to the fire - and they squawked like old hens! Now, they are contentedly resting in their coops, spitting out pimp job after pimp job like the good ol' days.

You had a great niche and got a lot of viewers/comments. But now it's tame/boring stuff. Chewing gum for the masses. But I guess that's what affiliate companies want? Pretty soon you'll start posting trip reports. Oh, forgot, that's already started

Interesting that a third of the edits came from DP.

I guess it makes sense though, given the blog
