Plunging
Eoco \| 3:40 AM on 06.21.2008	6 comments

Despite having read Destructoid since May 2006 I've never taken the plunge into the choppy sea of twisted craziness that is the Dtoid community. Today I take that plunge. Deep breath...

...well that wasn't so bad even if it is a little bit chilly. I guess this snorkel mask, full spandex body suit and non-waterproof camera really helped. Well maybe not the camera, that was just stupid.

Now that your wrapped in a tightly weaved web of confusing analogies and convoluted descriptions I'm going to end this post the only way I know how...

...badly

Yes I understand what you mean, I was merely doing one introduction blog and this is by no means a sign of things to come.

This is the first and last blog of this type - any future blog posts I do will be my opinion on a peice of news or something like that. However, after reading your post I don't really see what else there is left to do: I'm not allowed to write about gaming news because I should send tips and I'm not allowed to talk about my life because that's boring and can be done on other gaming sites.

Maybe I should't have joined the community afterall.

You seem to have missed the point. I mainly linked that so you could see option "a".

a) FORUMS - "Look, I made a picture." Look, there's a forum thread for that and plenty of people will still see it and respond. Old forum threads get revived on a daily basis, don't worry. "My girlfriend thinks I'm annoying." I think that one's for the Social Lounge. In the forums. A lot of Clog posts are time-sensitive, they're posted at that specific moment for a reason. When you push quality stuff down, they die. Less people read them. Boooo. Small talk and lack of originality and thought is more suitable for the forums, keep it out of Clogs.

This sort of post belongs on the forum, not on the community blog.
