So here’s the thing. There are certain folks in the industry that really don’t like us. Not in the fashion industry, since most brands, designers, models, and magazines seem to love us, but in the blogging industry. It’s kind of weird how it all started and I get tired of going into it, but basically, there are some sites who are run by petty people who attack us occasionally to help them get some traffic, notice, etc. It’s all really ridiculous stuff and occasionally the Village Voice or Gawker blow it way out of proportion and make it seem like I’m an asshole.  It’s cool, I don’t really sweat it, you live, you learn, and then you get Luvs.

Anyway, I’m trying to help shed Fashion Indie’s torrid past, to make amends for any of my hurtful comments and bring you all a better, slightly more professional version of our independent views on fashion. I know for some of you it will be difficult to forgive my stupidity, but what’s life without a little resolution for future. So indies, here’s my resolve, I Daniel Saynt will spend far less time defending myself against attacks and more time ensuring these attacks never take place.

I will do this by enforcing stricter editorial policies on Fashion Indie, checking posts regularly and making changes whenever you comment on misspellings or grammatical errors. I will encourage more thought-out postings and remain engaged in conversations with our readers. I will try harder to listen to your opinions on Fashion Indie and build a site you can be proud to read daily. Additionally, I will no longer engage in silly blog wars with silly bloggers and quickly dying newspaper organizations, at least I won’t defend myself in the way I have in the past (that means fewer “Go F*ck Yourself”s  to loser bloggers). Also, we’ll try our best to keep our content safe for work, giving you extra peeks only if you want it.

I hope that’s a start in the right direction. Comment if you have anything more we should add to our list of reforms.
