cgodread the comments I wrote to Devac . At least there is one respectful and humble guy here so far.

"prepare to be judged on that act and that act alone.” First impressions are everything."

One of the most respectful thing one can do is honor the rules. I read the TOS and ensured I was complaint. I have had no issues or complaints on similar sites like Newsvine. The bible talks about righteous judgement, yours was a snap one.

"just a person who wants to use Hubski as a blog mirror"

Again, read what I wrote to Devac. Yes, that is my intention. I did not know many of these sites existed before I bought a 3 year web host plan. So I will use it and post. I see nothing wrong with that. Instead of my brain to hubski, it is going one other step (my blog). FYI, Devac already said how this site will provide almost no traffic. Why do you think I am still here?

FYI, I choose to only post on my own threads because of people like you. You create controversy and fail to read previous comments so I must repeat myself. To keep an educational discussion going it is imperative I respond timely and with relevant scholarly sources which takes time.

Here is a snippet of my previous post "Now I am going to be 100% honest. I will mostly be participating on my own threads. The reason being is I want to have a real educational debate. To do so, I have to be able to respond quickly and with scholarly sources. This takes a lot of time. Just this reply took a bit because I like to be clear and concise".

"A post in support of judging things upon their apparent merit when you don't know your audience seems like folly."

You seem to be the only one bothered by it.

"no real interest in engaging with the wider community."

I put a lot of effort in to my writing and I respond to almost every comment on every other board. I and many others would consider that engagement.

"I am not embarrassed"

You should be. You accuse me of spamming (which you just admitted I am not) when you are in fact by definition spamming my post. If you do not like my content move on.

So I am unsure of the reason for your post. If I am not spamming or violating the TOS, your comments are of no use to me. The great part about this site is, you don't have to follow or read my posts if you choose not too.
