Happy Holidays and ???

Hello Readers,

I have just returned from visiting family for the holidays. I hope all of you had a nice holiday season with your loved ones. I’m reading the blog now and the comments and gosh. I’m sort of speechless and very confused as to what is going on. I’m not even sure it is my place to comment but being that I have dedicated alot of time and energy on this blog I would like to attempt to…

I would just like to say that regardless if you like us or hate us, we do try hard and put our heart and soul into the blog.  I don’t pretend to take the best pictures or find the best deals. I try to find an assortment of things because everyone’s tastes differ. I started my weekly posts on home decor and men’s deals simply because those were things you the readers asked for. I do read the comments! Writing on this blog became one of my favorite things to do in SL and alot of that was due simply to you, the readers! Whenever I have met anyone in world you have been nothing but nice.

I have also had the fortune to meet alot of designers in SL. Whenever I get the chance I always try to IM them and and introduce myself, thank them for the freebie or dollarbie and ask if they mind if I could blog about their item. SL like RL is all about communication. It doesn’t hurt to be nice and we should all treat each other how we would want to be treated.

I have not spoken to Feo or any of the other bloggers so the above comments are simply my own. If the blog is ending I would truly be sad because it has been a pleasure to meet all of you and write for this blog. Please remember SL is supposed to be fun and a break from the stress of real life. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but please be kind to each other.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading and as always Happy Shopping!

With Love,

Caitlain Clowes

About The Future Of This Blog

After reading all of the comments (and this post had made it to the list of hot posts on the wordpress. com main page yesterday), I would like to inform you, that  I’m going to take the final decision about the future of this blog next year.  But, to be honest, I absolutely don’t feel like blogging again. Either you’ll see something posted on January 1st, or the blog closed.

When some people reported my old blog back  in September and got it flagged by Google, it felt like a slap in my face, but I had the energy and the will to move the blog to wordpress and to carry on blogging. Maybe the hate mails are just part of that campaign, lanced by the same group of people. I don’t know, who they are or why they are doing it.

Please don’t be too disappointed, if I decide to take down the blog, there are many other good freebie blogs to keep you updated.

Okay,that’s it !

After reading that last comment from Sileny, I have decided to quit blogging. I have recieved so many hate mails and hate comments these days. Please read the other blogs from now on, I’m not going to waste my time here any longer.

Have a nice Second Life

UPDATE: Just one example of the bullshit that’s going on behind my back  enjoy. Seriously I ‘m sick of it.

UPDATE 2:

I can’t thank you enough for your support, feel free to comment here, but please don’t flame, swear or insult people. All I said and meant was: Sileny’s comment was the final straw. It could have been anybody else. I have nothing at all against Sileny or Wrenja or other bloggers. It’s their right to comment on my posts, but I have the right to react  and to reply.

I didn’t change my mind and I still feel like quitting. Give me some days to think about it. Maybe you can’t imagine how much work and time it takes to run a blog with almost half a million hits. If you get nothing but hate and negative feedback in return (because the happy readers never say anything), it takes you down.

I don’t earn money from this blog, not a single L$, it’s a labour of love and my love is gone at the moment.

I didn’t mean to start a war here, and I never expected so many comments.

Hugs and thank you  !
