Slenderblog v. Slanderblog: "Which Blogs Are Good?" Because of the influx of blog authors wanting to get blogs known... I don't know how well this will go over, but I've noticed many blog authors wanting to get their blogs noticed. Because most of the regs here seem to be annoyed, why not make a thread where people can say they 'found a new blog' and let other people confirm, so it doesn't clog up the forum?
Please tell me if you don't want this thread, I'll ask somebody to lock it if it's hated/abhorred/slanderblogg'd.
NOTE: These aren't all started by authors, just people who found blogs. Also, this could be compared to the "List of Slender ARG's" thread, but this one could be more of a 'let's see if this is good enough' thread?
Slenderblogs (above +5):
Hiking Fiend +9
Slenderage (-5 to +5):
Musical Occurrences +4
Something Wicked This Way Comes +3
SEESME +2
I'll See You In Hell +1
Walking the Hallowed Halls +1
Will Not Run +1
Smiting the Gods -1
SlenderMan -2
Anthroagast -3
Picking Up The Pieces -4
Slanderblogs (below -5):
Hall of Shame (No need for a number. Just really negative.):
Also, we could discuss which ones are complete trash, which show promise, etc.
Rules :
1. Each vote cast should be said [Blog name][+ or - 1].
2. Strongly encouraged to vote for all blogs, but it's unneeded.
3. For "Hall of Shame", 5 votes of confirmation are needed, including mine.
4. I encourage you to give a reason why you gave each blog + or - 1.

I propose a name change of this thread to: Slenderblog Vs. Slanderblog.

I have a counter-proposal. Make the subtitle the title: "The "OMG NEW BLOG" Thread".

Considering that we can barely agree on the title of a thread, I am unsure we are ready to pass judgment on Slenderblogs.
But we will anyway.

No Escape From Reality needs to go under SLOONDERblog
It's a unique brand of terrible.

So who wants to go through each blog and judge them?

Titles are little more than labels for those who can't make up their own minds anyway. Were ready, but I think it'll take a few blog posts before we can pass judgement on any of them.
2187's right though. We do need a section for something that's even worse than terrible.

I wouldn't say NEFR is any worse than Forever Stalked.
I'm only going to put in-progress blogs on the list.
Next up:
No Escape From Reality
Anthroagast
Smiting the Gods
Musical Occurrences
Theoriginalaliendude (Link in OP)
Something Wicked This Way Comes
Vote time! Slender or Slander? If I see something worse than NEFR and Forever Stalked, I'll make a category.

Anthrogast abruptly changed from horrific prose to first person giddy narrative. I am unimpressed.
They also appear to be going through and editing previous posts.

Anthrogast doesn't impress me either. It seems rather disjointed.
And what about Why Are You Running? Technically it's slander to the rest of the universe, but it's funny as hell.

Eh, let me add a few rules.
1. Must vote on all blogs being voted on at a certain time.
2. I'm adding a new section "Slenderage", for average Slenderman blogs/vlogs.
3. Each vote cast will be said [Blog name][+ or - 1].
4. Anything under -5 will be considered Slanderblog, and over +5 will be considered a Slenderblog. Good?
Also, no humor blogs, then I feel as if I'm crossing into the Slendy ARG thread too much.

I agree with the no humor blogs rule Slender Man coming in someones house in the middle of the night and killing their family just doesn't make me laugh but maybe that's just me.

Anthroagast -1
Smiting the Gods +1 (if only for wondering what comes next)
Musical Occurrences -1
Picking Up The Pieces -1 (Not sure it's a Slenderblog at all though)
Theoriginalaliendude +1
Hiking Fiend +1
Something Wicked This Way Comes +1
