Well then, please read in the on-topic fashion - if done in such a way 
as to "lower the tone", I recall, userpages are not really welcome to 
contain just anything. But the misreading of userspace=user page here is 
vexing.  The problem comes, re blogging, when people really do "blog" on 
dedicated user pages, in violation of WP:USER, and apparently stand on 
their rights to do that.
