Hi all, I closed my Multiply account today due to a total lack of interest in communicating, except for a small core of "die hards" and am only Blogging here now. Although I have cross-posted a few bits this is my first Blogger blog.
Its a welcome to my wayward friends from Multiply ands new readers I see on my list of friends.
I only keep a small circle of friends, Not usually more than 50, simply because I can't get around and read blogs from more people that that.
Shortly I will be closing down the Page to public viewing and there are a few rules about this and every other blog I have had that I want to make clear.
This is a place for fun and enjoyment, DON'T come start fights with people or me on my Pages, you will be blocked.
DON'T add me to your list is your not going to read me and comment. I will comment on all blogs my friends post except political posts which I will neither read or comment on.
Blogging is a 2 way street if your somebody who blogs and expects comments on your posts, but does not have time to respond, I am not for you either.
My buddies from Multiply know I regularly "Spring Clean" my list if you don't visit and comment, your gone!
Blogging is about being a community and respect if you don't want to be part of my community and you don't have the Courtesy to comment if you read my posts, then please take me off your list.
If your happy with all the about your most welcome on my site and I will appreciate and respond to all your comments and posts and I believe there is a real chance to make a community here that will be better than Multiply ever was.
Hi, I am Baz, Welcome to Oceans Loft I am a semi-retired Oceanographer from the UK. I also worked as a Professional Photographer. I studied Ecology, Geology and Oceanography at the Open University University and a Post Graduate Degree in Environmental Management at Surrey University.
okie dokie :)
ReplyDeleteI tried to comment (ask you a question) on your guest book and it wouldn't let me! :(
...leaving for work now
OK D will catch up later;)
DeletePretty sensible guidelines, if you ask me. A lot of my stuff is semi or mostly US political and I will not feel bad if you do not comment as we in the US have a hard enough time with our politics let alone someone from another country. I look forward to seeing your pictures and hearing how your mother is doing.
ReplyDeleteThank you;)
DeleteI appreciate your very frank words. They make sense to me. It's really unfair when we comment on other blogs and there is no reciprocation. Perhaps, the reciprocity we expect sometimes is not intentional but due to lack of time or something else but not meaning badly. Have a great evening!

DeleteSo let's try again, somehow my reply did not want to do what I wanted. Just wanted to say in earlier days you were asked which 8 records you wanted to take on a desert island, today you can take even more friends to a desert blogging place of your choice. Mr. Swiss has known me to be chaotic, illogical, and talkative and wonders if I exist or am a virtuell cyber figure. He has never called me wayward up to now. My son thinks I am cool and not a "grufti" like most ladies in their "better" years. Anyhow, just to say I am here to stay for the next decade or so, so this journey could be fun.
DeleteI am glad your here ;)
DeleteMy blogging on here is more irratic, mainly what's going on in my world, a few pictures now and then. If that's too sparse to gain a spot with you, that's ok. I have enjoyed seeing your pictures and your part of the world.
ReplyDeleteNo my friend I appreciate your visits;)
Deletethanks for letting me in. :)
DeleteI have enjoyed reading your writings and looking at your pictures. Thank you for allowing me to do so up until now.
ReplyDeleteThat is something that really bugs the hell out of me too Baz, I comment on all of my friends posts but hardly get any comments myself. In fact so much so that I run out of time to bloody POST a blog. LOL
ReplyDeleteI really really have one I want to post since Friday, but, no time, slowwww PC so multiply HAS to GO.
lol well i will be over to keep tabs on yah mate..not sure yet where i will actually do my blogging...what am i talking about i quit blogging some time ago and not sure if i really ever will again..but i am keeping track of my friends
ReplyDeleteYou know that will always be cool with me Bro;)
DeleteI'm trying to post to all spots, and visit when I can. You know I love your photos, and appreciate the artistry with which you do it... I hope I can make the grade with commenting and visiting... I've failed with others due to time and circumstance...
ReplyDeleteGotcha !! So this is where you are hiding, Need to ask your help, cannot find a pm or guest book here and you seem to have totally disappered off Multiply. Am battling to find my way around over here. Where is the button that says Settings, Others on my blogger page??? Multply has given us an export tool. I have downloaded it now need to import it over here. Heeeeeeelp !! By the way seems I show up everywhere as Marianne Klint (Google)............must I close that so I can be crazydaneinafrica.blogspot.com ???? Crumbs got a headache already.
ReplyDeleteps neat set of rules, Bazman, Wish I had the guts and gumption to be that frank . Hugs !
