User blog comment:PlantyThePottedPlant/Random Topic Blogging III: Blog Harder/@comment-3006892-20121020211155

Alright, users. After reading all of the stuff that has gone on in the last forty-eight hours, I have a suggestion that I feel will help remedy this website's unhealthy state.

I am giving myself a set of guidelines on how to use this blog that hopefully others will follow. Now, I know that I'm not an admin and therefore have no authority whatsoever on you guys, so I'm praying that possibly your respect as my friends will be enough.

1. Comments specifically for one user are NOT allowed on this blog. That's what talk pages are for.

2. Small soliloquies of life, basically "status updates", are not permitted on here. If you wish to share these things, go onto chat and find a friend to talk to. Seriously, we don't bite.

3. Comments about art or fanfiction are STRICTLY for their respective blogs. This includes posting comments containing art pieces that are only for the purpose of sharing the art.

4. If you begin a discussion with a user that lasts more than two comment replies each, take the conversation to either chat or talk pages.

5. If you begin an argument with a user, the same rule applies.

6. Try and restrict the number of comments you leave on here to a maximum of one per day. Replies to other user's comments do not apply.

Again, I'm not cramming these down your throats, you can ignore these all you want, but I just care about this place and want it to thrive. This place is literally my roots as far as art, writing, and a majority of my friends is concerned, so the last thing I want is to see it die.
