I know I'm supposed to blog about the Gawai celebration this year (visit my photoblog for the snapshots) but I just have to get this out of my system now because I'm kinda pissed off.
At what?
At people who don't have the decency to reply to comments. I find it basic courtesy to reply to comments be it compliments, critiques or even enquiries. Logically thinking, when one asks a question it's because one needs an answer isn't it? We don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand that. I have this policy of responding to the comments left at my blog since it's, you know, human to be polite to others.
What triggered this outburst? I am a supporter of the Iban blogging scene and so I'd visit the blogs on my friends' bloglist. I visited some of the blogs and I happen to see some familiar faces on their blog sonaturally I'd ask if it's the same person that I know. Mana la tau if it's pelanduk dua serupa kan? The first time I commented on this blog (tak payah nak sebut which blog la) I saw someone who looked like my ex-uni mate. I asked. That was last year. Until now, I never get any reply.
Okay.
Then I saw a pic of the blog owner with someone who I knew very well, a family friend, so I commented. Again, no reply.
FCUK la dey!
I may be someone you don't know but hey, a lot of other bloggers who were total strangers have the basic courtesy of replying and from there we became blogger friends.
Is it because I blog mostly in English that you deemed me un-Iban and thus, undeserving to be replied to? (Sh!T man, that was the excuse that an asshole gave me years back. Un-Iban enough my ass! )
Or is it because you're an ass??

I always reply to your comments, right? So don;t marah saya, k? Hehehehehe!!! Saw ur photos in rubberseeds... So jeles! I didn't go anywhere as my daughter's home for the holidays and she was not feeling vrey well...
Of course not you la..:-)
Actually what made me mad was that the person was sort of purposely ignoring my comment.
Philip did ask if you're coming but I told him, since your daughter's here, you'll be occupied. :-)
Oh dear, I hope she'll get better soon.
hehe I'm one of your ardent readers and I appreciated your honesty and frankness. Do continue so, my dear !
Manah amat gambar ba photoblog nuan. Nice snapshots. Baka pro !!
I can understand if the blog has tons and tons of comments and I don't expect the blogger to reply to all the comments .. this is always the case with political blogs with lots of visitors or even blogs like Mr Manager's.
But if this person's (the one you're referring to)blog is like yours and mine, hmm, kira ka sombong meh iya, enti enggai nyaut tanya nuan!
Chris, sorry enti aku bisi kala enda nyaut comment nuan! Kekadang comments nya dibacha ba email, alu enti enda disaut immediately, bisi lah enda ingat disaut. Er, that reminds me, I need to respond to this one long comment on my religion blog!! C ya!
Lyana:
Thanks :-)
I like to be frank and direct but my honesty and frankness sometimes got me labeled as rude. As if i care. Haha
Baka pro kah? Haha... Hobi saja2 ja nya. Hope to achieve my dream of being a better photographer (nti ulih ka nyadi pro kenu) The downside of being a photographer is that, there's no photos of me. :-p
Puteri:
Nya meh. Nti nge org nya baka sida kennysia kah nadai gak ngawa. Endah sida sixthseal pun nemu meh nyaut komen org and they have a larger circle of readers. Tu readers seciput cit jak tapi very selective when answering comments. Hmmm....
Asai aku nuan semampai nyaut komen aku, nadai ngawa laun ka tumu ka. Amat meh nyaut.
Baka nge aku ama bisi alu terus saut meh. Kelai nadai nyaut, aku nadai online meh nya. Hehe... It's a gesture to appreciate the readers who would be bothered enough to leave a comment. Nda pia ya wai?
Aiyo..you must be really really angry..one of your longest post yours truly has seen during my limited visit. And thanks for all the replies.On the other side of the coin I realise that there are(at least one)visitor in STP's blog who comment for the sake of I don't know what. Kena hantam left right center by subsequent visitors..and I seriously doubt if she ever visit the same post to check a reply...Cheer up..it holiholiday. kpenyu
I was just pissed off. Longest entry? Read the ones I posted way way back. Laaaagggiii panjang.
Haha, I know who u're talking about. Ya lah, ppl hantam her so teruk also she never perasan. Maybe she just posted a comment just for the sake of it.
enda nemu jako ribai aku....
ari enda nemu meh kitai tauk nemu laban kitai belajar.
Nda pia?
cool....i love it...same la...baru ja ka nulis type pasal tu.hahaha....i love this one chris "FUCK LA DEY!".errr...are you mad at me?hehehe...
in the situation u've described, i wud get pissed off too. yalah, simple question with simple answer only...itu pun susah mau reply?
i agree with you about replying to comments especially those yg seeking for answers. i try to reply all comments in my blog even if it just a simple 'thank you'. their effort to drop by and commenting is more than I can thank of.
Ubek:
No lah, not you. You're my loyal reader ba :-) Biasa lah aku bek, bahasa nadai filter...LOL!
Carol:
Tu la pasal. Bukan nya sy tanya dia solan fizik ka, mat tambahan ka. just a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer is enough. Haha... Bah, sudah shopping baju mo pigi wedding ka?
err...kind of odd when someone call me "bek" except one who no me for a while.hahahaha!!but yes it is cool.hahaha...
Ubek:
You've been reading my blog for how long already? Haha...
Hope you dont mind me calling u that, my finger flies when i'm typing so a whole lotta time i have the odd typo :-)
