I checked it out for you. It was a link to LiveLeak that sums up the situation. Other people don't have a problem with it. I will post the link again when I find it. It works fine on Firefox.

We just relaunched the new design (well, 99% done) of Blog Flux, and also rolling out new features. At the same time, I know what my strengths are, and what my weaknesses are. Managing writers is a weakness. Managing a tech team figuring out large scaling problems ala local is a strength. Plus, and I'll be honest, while BN is very intriguing, and our position of services + blogs + design puts us in an interest perspective, I do find local far more interesting. To a certain level blogging is maturing. Local is an absolute wild west, and lots to be done in it :) For those wondering the ‘different’ usernames all talking about ‘freedom’ (though conveniently spamming me to stop my right to do what I want with this blog) are the same people - using different usernames sure was genius.

I am all with you Ahmed and supported everything in that great post. As he said, the fact that you use an alias and fail to have a correct email address says a whole lot about you, your courage, and your maturity level.

I think I'll send him to the mall for some socialization, then maybe he'll find better things to do with his time.

PS: Love your BloggyNetwork, and think you should give it more of your time and not focus in iBegin, don’t know if there is where the money is, but BloggyNetwork really stands out visually from others "BlogNetworks" and that is a plus in my opinion, so a blog growth would be welcomed by me, and many others, I think Hey, Ahmed, you must find those comments insulting, to give “some guy” this kind of exposure, but maybe it’s just me ( a white guy from Portugal ) and don’t really understand the clash of religions taking place in North America, but this guy, if he is serious, cannot upset you - thats all he wants - and you really shouldn’t botter to answer him.
