Colombia Blog is getting boring

I hardly every go to CB any more, which is a shame, because there is lots of good stuff there. There will always be people who post thread that are long and boring to someone. (thread go on and on…on. Persephone is a moderator and is the nastiest girl there and JD just laugh because is hir friend. If somebody else do it he'll luck it the thread. There you can see JD has favoritism for some people. For me that is VERY unfair because he is the administrator and should be neutral. Is VERY boring is nothing new there.

More personality here and more members here but nice site there. I think the people are very nice and none seem to have an agenda. However I find there are a lot more people with actual first hand knowledge of Colombia on PBH.

Perse, Nastty? I don't think Perse, Nasty? I don't think so, I think she is a lovely girl. About knowdledge of Colombia, same people that post here post there, the useful ones ;). as you said nobody there seem to have an agenda, its a friendly blog, I like it, people seem to discuss thing there without being attack or critized,I am more comfortable in there than here, there is a lot of nonsense sometimes in here. here the post seem to go on and on too and the same ones, how much more post we have to read about Cali being dangerous! or about Colombian women... it gets boring.

And I think JD is a great administrator, he has a nice site there

Kat I agree I think they are really nice over there. I feel more at ease posting over there also. I also agree that it gets crazy over here rehashing the same stuff. Since WidowerinCanada stopped with his stuff last year there has not even been a fun story to follow. Anyway if I have a question about something specific I think that just by the number of members here there is a lot better chance of getting some real good information. I have gotten some great info. and met some great members in Colombia from PBH. However there are some crazy people on this site:) I think it gets a little crazy in here and not very productive but it is addictive. I can pull this site up at anytime and see some crazy new thread started. My wife thinks I am crazy to even look on here. She says she can tell me anything I need to know about Colombia. She just doesn't get it. I am addicted to this stupid site!!! I just wish they would bring back PMs and "WidowerinCanada" would make a return with another story.

CBlog Actually the atmosphere at CBlog is much friendlier than that of PBH. This site has way more members and traffic than CBlog, but there is too much animosity at PBH, I made a long post in reply to somebody who called me out and the insults start flying and people just get personal (sometimes it's funny , sometimes it is tiring), which doesn't really happen at CBlog.

Less misoginy and cultural chauvenism over there too. Both sites are unique and have their good points.

Both forums are good I too get sometimes addicted to the forums, I would like to see a forum generated from Colombia.

Let´s not give up on PBH and see what is comming after the survey.

Things might be repetitive over here, but we got new members who could do a google search on this site, but also would like recent information, and not from older posts

I never wear a hat unless I have a reason to be wearing it. Real cowboys usually wear gimme baseball-type hats when they're working. That way if they lose it they haven't lost anything. I have several beat up hats that my kids would love me to get rid of but they've got sentimental value. They also want me to shoot my dog because she's about 400 years old. Sure she can barely move and she's deaf and blind but she still gets up every morning to bark at the dogs across the street so I think she's getting some enjoyment out of life.

ColombianBlog I just came from there but I don't know how to navigate on that site.
Do they have a forum like here where one can read and post topics?
I did not see it. Maybe one must become a member in order to see the threads?

If it walks like a duck Rubiazo says: (on the other blog). I am also of the very strong opinion that rural crime gets vastly underreported and that for people not indigenous to the region rural areas are actually more dangerous than urban areas THE WORLD OVER.

Colombian Blog - THE SPINOFF Ok shortly after I started posting on here I recieved a PM asking me to register for CB.

Whilst I did go over and take a look at the site , it apperared that there were too many sections on the site and it was confusing , also it appeared that the moderator started 95 % of the topics.

Whilst it is great that we get new forums on Colombia , I must say in my humble opinion that PBH is the original and still by far the best.

It makes me chuckle how there are threads on CB that try to put this site down , and make theirs look superior , its only innocent fun.

May I be the first to thank Peter on a great website and for taking the time and effort to keep this place an amusing and informative Colombian site.

Persephone says on Apr 27, 2006, 05:18:

Hey Bquilla THis is Persephone. Why dont you be a man and say what you've got to say over on CB instead of coming over here and talking shit behind my back. If you dont like what i Have to say, then dont fucking read it, no one asked you too. The forum is about relationships and sex, I dont see how anyone broke off from teh topic at hand. So why dont you pull that stick out of your ass.

prospect says on Apr 27, 2006, 06:28:

why bicker? I've been a lurker on both sites for a long time but never joined PBH. I learned of PBH from over there. I asked one time what was PBH and the administrator was kind enough to give me the link. Later, I found another link to PBH in the Colombia related links in the forum. Doesn't sound like they are "competing". If anything, they lament how bad this forum had become because of lack of moderators and lack of control of the trolls.

I for one enjoy both sites. There is plenty of room on the internet.
Cblog is hopefully the start of more discussion forums that accomodate different people with differents tastes.

About PBH I signed up here probably about a year ago but I just really DO NOT like the board layout. I think it's terrible. Ive been posting on message boards for years and this is the worst set up i have ever seen. YOu can't even quote someone's post properly. I think I only posted like 5 times and I just couldnt deal so I left and eventually I found CB on google (i think) and I couldnt be happier.

The other day i went out with morphus and he had to pick me up, like i was his freaking date, luckily i brought my daughter so it was not so bad.

I guess that means there ar probably 3 million of us that you think are losers!!! LOL Please everyone in NY takes the train and/or bus. I knwo I do. I dont even have a car and i live in NJ. When the time for the CB meetup comes im getting my ass on a bus at port authority and going over to see JD. yay!

In this post, it is as if a different person wrote it. I'm thinking it is a jealous wife using her hubby's handle. It's just a theory. Persephone/Reina is loved a cb!! ; )

Rubiazo says on Apr 27, 2006, 11:24:

I find that the real stupidity on here tends not to happen on CB. That's why I mostly post over there. You can give an opinion and have it respected as an opinion. There are way too many flamers on here who have a hard problem when somebody attacks their ethnocentrism or has a different way of seeing things than they do.

If you think someone's opinions are shit that's fine but when you just start ridiculing people that crosses the line and puts an end to any intelligent discussion. Unfortunately nobody seems to care about that here.

I also like the setup at CB better. I've been saying for a long time now that phpbb is the only way to go with forums. :P

Persephone or Reina This forum is to talk about anything. I'm Sweetgirl in CB and my husband is from B/quilla and I don't jealous of nobody. I post what I think of CB as you guys post of PBH in CB. If you don't like it, don't read it. We are in United States where freedom of speech is.I signed up there but I just really do not like.

Persephone says on Apr 27, 2006, 13:55:

Bquilla/Costeña/Sweetgirl I dont remember anyone saying you were jealous or whatever. What I was trying to say before is why come to PBH to talk shit about me when you can do that right on CB. Why are you trying to hide it? And Did you really think that I wasn't going to find out about this thread, or that other members of CB werent going to see it? Bad judgment on your part.

"We need more websites like this and colombianblog." Both sites are good with interesting people. I personally believe there are more knowledgeable people posting on this site.

Some of us on this site sometimes have difficulty controlling our tempers. Posters on the other site seem to make a greater effort to be civil.

My perception of the membership of the other site is that they are all relatively young. That is certainly not a criticism but merely an observation.
