A Time of Struggle and Chaos

These are dark times. Big, pushy, wide-read blogs try to advance their sphere of influence into smaller, more local blogs (much like China in the 19th Century, coincedentally), big countries invade little countries (it could happen), big bugs eat little bugs (that's a known fact).
For a long time, this blog has been little more than a front, a satelite, a puppet, for one of those bigger blogs. It wanted to get more readers on its count by attracting them through my blog. It posted comment after comment on my posts, and whenever too much time had elapsed between posts, it would threaten me with violence.
And who is this ruler behind the scenes, this puppeteer? Fudge. Tales of Crime and Treason weren't getting enough readers, it seems. Fudge wanted more power. And then, once she began posting on my blog, she ushered in countless new bloggers to her side. When I stopped posting, I couldn't talk with her without the enivitable, "So why aren't you posting?"
Well, fellow bloggers, I come to tell you now that the reign of terror has ended. We draw the line HERE! This far and NO FURTHER! From now on, this blog operates as OutofAMMO's blog, not fudge's!
I understand this may be a long and hard fight. It may not be a battle I can win. But I have to take a stand. Not just for me, but for the small blogs that no one reads everywhere. United we are strong!
So you wanted me to post, fudge? here's your post.
