Well, I think the excessive blog creation thing happened mostly because people knew that by creating a blog post they would receive attention and the community would comment specifically on the opinions of the person who created the blog.

It can be quite hard to make your comments stand out and have people reply to them in a common blog post, so in a way we understand why some would want the rule revoked.

But you can trust me that a ton of blog posts received no comments at all when people could create them without restrictions.

So I think it's better to work on writing interesting and original comments instead of making new threads about a topic that has most likely been covered multiple times in the past.

You are free to make new forum threads though, so long as you follow the few rules we have in place and don't make a duplicate thread about something that has already been discussed.
