I've been asked repeatedly to come back to blogstream. I'm still debating whether or not to do that on the nearly full time basis that I did before, precisely because of the many conflicts raging between bloggers here, both publicly and behind the scenes.
For now, this is my compromise.
If we can act like adults, and hash out our differences here, instead of running from blog to blog posting a multitude of angry posts, then maybe there can be a restoration of what blogstream once was.
To do this will require honesty and maturity from everyone who has the courage to participate. Can we rise above our differences? Can we respect each other, even if we disagree? And can we leave out hate speech and hyperbole and slander and stick to the facts at hand?
The invitation stands for every Blogstream blogger to participate. It's up to you. Time will tell whether the bloggers here are willing to deal with their issues, or choose instead to walk the path of hatred, vitriole,anger, and even useless threats of legal action that only causes more hurt while really solving nothing.
Life is just too damn short to continue wasting it on destructive pursuits against each other.
The floor is open for debate. Ignore it or participate as you choose.
