Due to lack of confidence
[permalink]

Following our previous article on the SA Blog Awards Sham that was exposed by The Sunday Times, 2oceansvibe are officially pulling out of this year's Blog Awards. Deeply saddened, the following was given in an official statement to the organisers this morning:

Dear 2007 Blog Awards organisers,

Please accept this message as an official announcement that 2oceansvibe is pulling out of the 2007 SA Blog Awards. 2oceansvibe is currently featured in a number of finals and would like to be removed completely from the runnings.

The reasons behind our withdrawal are well documented on www.2oceansvibe.com and generally have to do with a gross lack of confidence in the awards, its organisers and processes.

2oceansvibe are saddened by the situation and hope that a more fair and logical system (and organising team) will be introduced by the 2008 awards.

Yours, in blogging.

Seth Rotherham

What a pity that greed and jealousy got in the way.
