A few days ago I came across a blog post that I took a bit of offense too. Now there aren't a lot of times that I will bad mouth another blogger because I feel you have to blog to your own style. However when a whole post is made up of snide to down right nasty comments seriously bashing other bloggers I do take offense. The worst part was this blog actually included links to the blogs they were ripping apart. I honestly felt sorry for the other bloggers!
The blogosphere is filled with all kinds of blogger with their own unique personalities that shine through to their blogs. Fault can be found with any blogging style or design or topic. The important thing to remember when reading another blogger blog is they are blogging for themselves not as an example for critiquing unless they have asked to be critiqued. A fair critique is never 100% negative either. Using an example of something you don't like reading (eg. bashing other bloggers) or seeing on a blog (eg. IP trackers telling you your IP) without disclosing the name, personally attacking the blogger and link to that blog is one thing BUT to publicly humiliate another blogger is just not acceptable. This is a sure fire way to not only make yourself look bad hurting your reputation as a blogger but also gain enemies in the blogosphere. In severe cases it is also a good way to lose your blog hosting services especially if your blog bashing was contrary to their TOS.
