[quote=Anonymous]The thing that I couldn't stand about Alice on GOMI was that she would make fun of bloggers for making money off their blogs, especially when bloggers would try to have an "event" for fans that they charged money for, while at the same time Alice was begging for money from readers herself because (she said) she could not pay for the server, and then she ultimately switched it over to a pay site (or maybe pay for the forums?).  Like, that's the same thing, Alice.  You are the thing that you are making fun of, you're just funnier, but no less of a grifter (if you view blogging as grifting).

Ten years ago GOMI also had this weird, anti-momblogger vibe, like the feeling was that every blogging mom should get an honest job that contributes to the economy and stop trying to make money by telling stories on the internet.  Like, point on the doll to where mommyblogging hurt you, Alice.  Like, let's just allow these ladies to try to write their way out of diapers and simulac if they can and just see what happens because surely women telling one another stories about their families isn't the worst thing to ever happen on the internet.  But wtf do I know?[/quote]
