Blogwars : Heaven Nose Kills Trainwrecks

The Jawa Report has its rivalries and fights with other blogs now and then. It goes on, and it's generally not a big deal. The Trainwrecks vs. Heaven Nose blog fight, on the other hand, has taken it to another level entirely. This is the first time I'm aware of that one blog actually killed off another blog--or at least forced another blog to commit suicide. The victors had this to say:

So the question remains: Why? It's simple. We got rid of Trainwrecks just because we could. Not bad for two clowns whose mother tongue isn't English, eh? Let's see you take down a blog in Italian or Greek.
Here's a little more background:
Once upon a time there was a blog, called Trainwrecks.net managed by Beth Campbell aka xeney. This site wrote about—train wrecks--human train wrecks. Any story you could imagine as long as it was a train wreck.

Some of Trainwreck's readers, or perhaps I should say victims, came over to this blog and weren't too happy about what Trainwrecks wrote about. Warfare between Trainwrecks and many other blogs ensued. People were taking this quite seriously. They thought the Trainwrecks people were cold and stone-hearted.

And then, suddenly, this weekend, Trainwrecks.net is no more.

So, the primary effect of all this was a sizable wave of publicity and traffic for both the Heaven Nose blog and the Trainwrecks blog. Was this a mere unintended consequence of a pissing match?

1 Don't worry about it. One thing  the Jawa bloggers can do is kick ass. Haven't we proven it time after time?

2 Oh hell yes.   It seems to me the loss of the site was silly.  Lighten up folks.

4 We means the ones with balls. Of course, that doesn't include you. Now shut up and go back to kissing Bareass HUSSEIN Jomamas' ass.
