I Was Asked About Being On Top

I Was Asked About Being On Top


I was complemented by another blogger on her post [post 3893352]. I thanked her and gave a short response, which could have been longer, but I wasn’t the subject of that post. She suggested I go for being top male blogger and said “I think you would have a lot of support if you went for it.” I responded, “maybe I’ll yak up a post about that” so here it is.

She said, “You’re a great problem solver”. Yeah, I’ll go along with that cause it is what I’ve been doing job wise and in a way fun wise (racing not sex) for a loooong time now and I did a bit here too. Strangely, because I solved a problem for an ex (gave her the money to take a class in . . . creative problem solving), I am now taking that online class myself. At this point in the class I am points ahead of the 100% mark. BTW, it’s a little weird trying to “learn” what you already “know”.

One problem with being a top blogger is the crap it generates. But that stuff seems to be more prominent for the women’s top blogger position. That alone would probably be a subject for a whole other post. Anyway, I don’t need or want that warring foolishness on my mind. The latest war(s) were not worth the “collateral damage” IMO. FWIW, in the problem solving class there is a section that talks about false logic “The 11 Most Common Examples Of Logical Fallacies” I was going over that while the latest war(s) were happening. Weird how some things happen at the most “interesting” time.

Another thing she mentioned was “Maybe you under value the product you could post, or feel guilty making multiple posts a day” and “Maybe you post at the wrong time for the recent posts list.” Far as that goes, I don’t have the time to post daily let alone multiple times per day except perhaps in a few situations. I do have a very long WORD doc with posts that are “brewing” but not quite up to 100 proof yet, and some that are just a few sentences/ideas with no meat to them. Part of that is my Virgo desire for near perfection. No guilt over posting or the value of it – if people like it, or me, great if not so be it. The attention is nice and the folks I interact with are cool too and that works fine for me. Being where I live and what I’m doing more dictates when I post – it comes up when it is ready to come up.

The purpose of me being on the site(s) is/was/is/was to find and participate in one-on-one in person “activities” – blogging came as a secondary semi-sexual act. Blogging really has done nothing (nada, zero, nyet) in the way of meeting women in my case. It has become mostly my main thing since there are few women on this site(s) in my area.

I was dangerously close to being on top once (I prefer someone else be on top ) and tried to “get off” as these linked posts show:
Calling out Ninja, Ghost, Ktmn, Mc and Todd, Todd, Todd
Pimpin The Other Guys
Please Help These Guys Out

So, thanks again to [blog hinj1] the lady who made the complement and suggestion.

    It's never too late to learn.
    I really think the blog lists are a pain in the butt at times.
They do seem to be a pain at times.

    There's no brass ring for being first, all one should do, is give their thoughts, and such.

    There are no winners or losers !!!
Good thoughts S thanks

Yeah guys don't seem to really care about "the list" and it don't mean much to me either. It sure hasn't gotten me laid so . . .

    I thought you were up there before. I've been there a couple of times, there weren't any issues, that's just on the women's list, them bitches be crazy. Go for it!
I think I was there for a day or so that's when I pimped you and KMD and others to get comments and get me off . . . the top that is.

    Personally I could t care less about that list...it creates more harm than good IMHO. I also joined the site to meet someone for one on one activities...but it has kind of more evolved into blogging. I mean I am still looking for that special someone, but it's the blogging that keeps me here, plus of course all the good people I have met through the blogs.
    I really like that the blogs are full of anything you could ever want, there is always something to read and comment on. Anyways, I'm always happy to read your blogs. And I do like being on top..... In one way.
I don't care one way or the other about the lists. They do seem to be the cause of many of the wars here.

Blogging seems to keep me here to but the occasional attention from a local woman helps some too.

"I am still looking for that special someone" eh hemmm . . . look here I'm underneath you

    I hear you. I don't even like being the top blogger in my province lol. I write for the enjoyment of it and the pleasure of meeting minds with other bloggers. Keep up the good work!
I didn't even think about the local lists so I just checked I'm top in Arizona by a long stretch - DAMN
I write for about the same reasons. Thanks CW.
