Smith has left the building
After watching all the silly online blog wars by the side walk for years, I'm sort of getting involved this time round.
Nope, i'm not excited nor proud of it.
It's fear.
FEAR
Why am I scared? Many would believe that given my online persona that I would not blink a second time about such incident. What is there not to be scared of? I've a proper career, wife and family. The last thing I want would be gathering too much unwanted attention and get them affected. That's not what I will sacrifice for money or fame.
I am a 31 yrs old married fat man. My desire for such action and fame is inversely proportionate to my weight.
Smithankyou Online
Over the years I've been an avid fan of anything happening online from world news to local gossips. If you have been reading my blog you would know that I have tried my best to discuss such matters in the most neutral light possible over the years. (Besides my recent hate post to Punggol which was totally taken out of context but that's another story)
I always believe that "I write doesn't means I'm right." The motivation of my writing on such cases has always been the same. To analyse the situation, looking for possibilities and inspiring readers to think beyond what they see. It was never about siding anyone. Some can choose to call me a hypocrite but I say I'm staying neutral.
However, I guess I am not doing such a good job as I was being singled out on a local blog as a "supporter to cyber bullying" and my blog post got copied and discussed on the blog which I did not even mention. Well, I did imply to give the readers some context.
No doubt, I did my fair share of trolling to my FRIENDS for a good laugh online which is pretty well known but never have I had any intention to belittle anyone or put anyone of them into any stead of distress, threatened or fear.
#SilenceForPeace
I was seeking for an answer in my previous post. Whether suing another person on the social web makes the world a better place. I guess i found my answer now. Which is why I am not going give any further comment online until further notice.
Am I scare? Yes, I am afraid that anything else I'm going to say will be used against me. A hobby gone wrong? Maybe. But more importantly, I would like to walk away from unnecessary online argument.
If peace comes with a price of my voice, I'm giving it up for peace. Do not need to follow me on any of my platform as there will not be any updates for now
May the force be with you, always.

Reading your blog on and off (I am not your most loyal reader) when I see my friends share on their facebook. I will be adding your blog to my list of blogs to read from now on.
I like how your blog post is not conventional type and witty. I love the blog post (5 reasons why I hate Punggol) that you got into some trouble.I stayed in Punggol and totally can feel your frustration.
Though I dun call myself a blogger since I don't blog much nowadays but I know how the blogsphere works.
I hope you can continue your good work. Jia you!! Don't need to bother some people. Haters will hate no matter what. :)
