That only friends can post in your blogs is kind of gay

Or if it comes down to it, setup an option for public and friends only blogs

Not going to happen for the exact reasons that privilege was taken away,
it was worse than General Chat at one point.

Unfortunately. Says it all.

oh, ok paul.

and I don't see why you'd want random people spamming your blogs.
They are blogs after all, not places to ask questions and such, which ie general chat is as good for.
