Apparently, the secret is to write about absolutely nothing. Or, be the one person left writing about a game nobody plays. Perhaps both?

Incoming blog about a drinking binge whilst playing warhammer, insta-250 bucks.

Guess writing about WoW can't win you money
You can, you've just got to cross promote your blog on other websites like I did, and like the people on Hellforge are doing.  Submit your stuff to Digg, Reddit, etc.  Post it on all relevant websites.

 On top of that, you've got to make your link interesting enough to click, and hopefully whatever you write is compelling enough to get some people to come back.

You can barely write, and yet you see fit to criticize those who have found success. Have you read her blogs? No? I didn't think so. Then shut your idiot mouth.

Yeah Riddler, I just looked at one of his blogs and it's pretty bad alright. I'm not usually one to call other people out on their BS but really... I read his blog about "gladiators living in a girls house" and it made me laugh and snort the apple juice I was drinking out of my nose because of how badly written it was. Ironic how a bad writer tries to slam writers who are leagues better than him. Jealous prick.

Congratulations to all the winners. Keep up the wonderful work! Haters, don't be so hateful. Let's see you come up with some decent blogs. Turn that hate into something constructive and you might get somewhere in life.

Grats to Snail, Project and Syp for their great work and excellent blogging. Don't let the children get you down, you've earned your win!

Quoted for truth. 

Let's see some more good blogs from everyone. We can all strive to try a little harder and write a little better.

Well having big digg spikes helps a lot, which means writing viral type articles (but they are good don't get me wrong).  The only blogs I enjoy reading in the wow section is probably oradol and roma, but both need to write more.  Unfortunately for me the lack of content being released in L4D has me kind of stagnating and I'm having serious issues with fraps so I can't write a lot of the strategy articles and tutorials I want to write.

Yeah I enjoy your blogs and Roma's as well. He's pretty good, and were I still playing WOW I'd find them to be incredibly informative and useful. Honestly speaking, WOW needs more bloggers like that. 

Concerning fraps, have you considered upgrading your computer or something? I mean, it'd be worth the investment.

And why should she care about what some angry 16 year olds who can barely write have to say about her blogs? She does not need to be told how to write. The blog belongs to her and her alone. She enjoys her writing and her readers enjoy it, so that's who she writes for. 

I think you're amusing, because she fits in perfectly fine on Hellforge. She's not blogging for you or the audience you refer to and no one expects her to do any of that. 

Who cares what some people think? They don't matter. Not at all.

Thanks G. Some of us use pics at Hellforge as a way to hopefully humanize ourselves with the audience. Some people are impervious to this tactic. In any case, I'll keep doing what I'm doing--I have my voice, and I'm not going to apologize for it. I totally hear what you're saying, but I'm choosing to toughen up instead of change. Plenty of my readers are in fact women, and the men who read my articles are largely articulate, fun guys who don't need to suck up to any girl online. The title of my blog intentionally draws attention to gender and the irony either resonates with you or it doesn't. Hope you'll come by Hellforge and check us out more often though.

thanks for taking that constructively instead of personally, i figured you'd recieve it well. i wouldn't have bothered posting it otherwise. i think i offended that e-knight guy sol, though. btw sol, that "Who cares what some people think?" line at the end of your reply made me laugh. you have much to learn about women ^^

hint: she cared enough to address them in a blog post.

The most confusing part of that post: in Australia, Lipton is a company that makes tea.

For a second I was sitting there going "... why the heck would a tea company want to make me?" It was like the most confusing version of "Are you my mother?" ever!

Yeah, Lipton is a tea here too.

I don't know why Lipton took Lipton as a nickname.

There used to be a commercial in Asia for Lipton with lyrics that went along the lines of "Lipton quali-TEA is life! so much somethingsomething, for your family and friends! the sign of good taste!" or some such. I might be mixing up old 80s theme songs with it in my garbled memory.

Personally, I think it tastes way too god damn sweet. Green teas and herbal teas beat the hell out of British ones.
