kahsoon’s got it going now, hasn’t he?
I can’t say I’m impressed with the hottestblogger deal, but hey, those girls are cute. I can’t deny that, and I can’t deny the fact that I wouldn’t have found such ravishing beauties on the internet if it wasn’t for his site. So, yes: I’ve patronized Kahsoon’s blog. Let’s get this particular hypocrisy out of the way first.
Then consider the fact that Kahsoon’s gone all out to sue Wingz, after having legal action threatened against his posting of lilacwine’s photos himself, and then consider the ensuing fireworks. Kahsoon’s been a pest for quite some time now, pinging PPS with abandon.
(I noticed just now how I’ve been using the phrase “with abandon” quite a bit lately. Some freudian, psychobabble thing or am I that limited? Ooh.. incriminating questions.)
Then there’s this little issue of pro-blogging and earning adsense dollars: holy shit, this adsense innovation thing has turned blogs all over into potential marketing sites for google ads you don’t care about anyway. A real, nice money-spinner I’m sure, but just one more thing that cheapens the whole experience. The google ad banner on the right of your screen is Blogsome’s and that’s my bit of pulpit-standing for this post (so nice to be holier-than-thou, hor? ah fuckit).
Any way, yes: google adsensing. Cheapens the whole experience. It’s like visiting a blog and finding a whore on standby just in case you need to blow your wad. Was that too crass? Okay, try this for size: it’s like visiting a blog and finding opportunities for relief at hand (sic). So what do we have with Hottestblogger? Probably an opportunity for various wanks before heading back into Real Life (and no, I don’t do that sorta thing), or, really, Kahsoon’s big time ticket to internet stardom and wealth.
There’s an online petition now going around in support of Wingz (implicitly) and canvassing support against Kahsoon. (And what’s this going to achieve?) Go here to sign up if you’re interested. There are posts all over PPS about Kahsoon, including cyber-red’s , and oxymoronic’s.
Should the petition be signed? Well, yeah, if someone feels strongly about it. Is it a case of Xiaxue’s anti-sponsorship campaign? There are relevant differences, I think: Kahsoon’s a pest that shows up in the public like an pimple that’s hard to get rid off, while XX’s presence is fairly static (ah-ha! aha ha ha! ha!).
But I wouldn’t sign the petition. Why engage in yet more thuggery? Ya?
I could say I’m a pacifist, or I could say I’m being consistent, but no one would believe it: we’re all weak, broken human beings who other people say cannot try to have some integrity mah.
We are all flawed characters, so we must therefore conform to the group-think, because thinking otherwise is true narcisscism, mah.
I think the best reason, the one that fits with my online persona, is that with Kahsoon gone, there’ll be no one else as idiotic to diss.
UPDATE: Oh, you guys have GOT to check this out. Fuckin’ brilliant, actually


i dun reli like him, but im not reli for the petition. it’s just a.. petition after all

Yeah. Petitions never work.

Although this 11 year old boy did have a successful petition against Warner Bros into making characters in Loonatics Unleashed cuter.

We should pray to the um internet gods of– ok, that’s overused hor? We should swarm him, complain to google and report to the Attorney-General for such insipid use of the internet!!!!
ok, just kidding, i just had to include some well-worn digs, heh heh …
petitions don’t work, yeah, but Kahsoon’s already a persona non grata so all this gimmicry is a sign of something more telling: people don’t like anything associated with him.
honestly? i think that’s the cruelest thing strangers can do to him, and i think he knows it. which should make kahsoon-haters happy.
:)

it’s not that i hate him which hate is a very strong usage of word. he just pisses me off. there very well said.
Comment by cyber-red — Wednesday, 16 November 2005 @ 8:01 pm
well, he’s making a complete ass of himself with all those threats. the thing is, i don’t think he’s the only problem. it’s just a symptom of the problem, isn’t it? the campaign ad “stop copy-pasters” is very much more accurate than the malaysian blog-o-sphere’s current witch-hunt of the week:
the persistent problem of repeat pings and ping abuse hasn’t really been solved yet. if it has been solved, no one would give a rat’s ass and a monkey about kahsoon, really.
if it’s not kahsoon today, it’s gonna be some other adsense-obsessed ass who’ll be pinging PPS till the cow comes home, or till he gathers enough adsense dollars (in which case, it’ll never stop).

Gee , I used to visit his blog frequently , never thought it could turn up like this , so please pardon my ignorance as I never touch his blog for months due to STPM . Moreover , I used to chat with him , on his own made forum , quite a nice guy i think . Oh well , all the negative comments against him don’t make me jump straight into the hate bandwagon anyway , it’s just that I miss the whole thing :S .

Things like this always collapse on their own. I signed for the hell of it and because I don’t like Splogs.
Is Kahsoon’s blog a splog? I would think so.
Comment by Edrei — Wednesday, 16 November 2005 @ 8:25 pm
should we gather all the splog and make them ban in somehow?

It’s kinda like the hydra of legend: you cut off one head, two grow in place.
I’m thinking maybe there should be a registration thing with PPS before you ping, or something, or else it’ll get out of hand.

Since HottestBlogger published, there are few girls mentioned there shut down their blog/website!!! What have you done Kah Soon?? You want to shut down other blogger?????
Kahsoon again did not ask permission from the person featured in his lame blog HottestBlogger, just ask
Arissa Luna herself http://www.arissaluna.moonfruit.com. She call Kahsoon “dried piece of shit”
He even put a “disclaimer” on his website, that he couldnt be sued because he put a “thumbnail size” picture.
He really got a big thumbnail lor!!

this is not just merely hitting out at kahsoon alone. if we allow such behaviour to reoccur, then PPS would be in shams, don’t you think?
Comment by cyber-red — Thursday, 17 November 2005 @ 3:22 pm
cyber-red> eh, i thought that was my point! :p but the whole thing might be more effective if, instead of targeting kahsoon for being the ass he is, just rule him out by taking people like him out of the picture lor, and that would be trying to come up with a system that monitors ping abuse.
brewster> yah, i don’t know also man. he’s become the most hated blogger in the fastest time possible. it takes talent for that sorta thing.. heh heh..
