Hi Ryan, so apparently there is a new blog rule which I did not find out about until today although I haven't made one since I just have a few questions about the rule.

1. I notice it says you must have consent, so does that mean for every blog you want to make  you must ask a admin for permission to make it? Or is it only required for voting blogs?

2. And by voting blogs does it just mean no polls, or just voting all together?

3. Why was this rule made? I personally believe that this rule isn't really necessary because I feel that people should be able to make blogs if they want (as long as it's necessary) and shouldn't have to ask someone if they can make one or not. I feel that the blogs are good because it can answer people's questions and people can fully express their feelings/opinions and they can discuss it too without having to go to the talk page of some main pages. Notice how some of the talk pages have become way more active than usual. But anyway, I just want to know the reasoning behind this rule other than the activity page having the update/comments from a blog showing up even though it really is the same with the people editing the talk pages more now...

I'm asking you because you're the only admin I'm familiar with and you're nice when explaining things. (Not saying the others aren't I just usually stick to a limited amount of people and I tend to be overly shy when talking to new people, even if it's over the internet...)

Thank You,

Brandon
