Watch out, the Admin Mods do not look at blog pimping in an overtly friendly manner.

Not true.

The ones on FR that hate blogers are the disruptor's.

The ones that complain and harass blogers for "blogpimping" cannot get over the fact that almost all those type of posts are COMPLETLY within FRs rules.

They cannot accept FRs rules for what they are and continue to act out in their childish ways.

Hold on.... the mods just don’t like people who show up and pimp their blog and don’t otherwise interact.

Maybe we need a specific definition of blog pimping.

I wasn’t saying they were doing that. I was saying watch out and don’t do that.

Sheesh.

I take exception to these statements (in the nicest possible way):

I don't hate bloggers. I do hate liars. Blogging does not equal lying, but there are enough lying bloggers out there to give the others a bad name.

The ones that complain and harass blogers for "blogpimping" cannot get over the fact that almost all those type of posts are COMPLETLY within FRs rules.

There are good blogs and there are blog whores. The blog whores seem to have worked out a fine system, "You pimp me, I'll pimp you."

They pimp one another all over the net, not just FR. However, one in particular, has worked out a good pimp system even after being banned by FR. I have seen the same slimy website pimped by the same person at least 5 times on one thread. [For clarification, I am not saying anyone & everyone linking is a blog pimp. I am talking about a finite number of posters who manage to get the pimp ball rolling.]

I am not the blog safety patrol. I try to keep an eye out for scammers and con artists who use FR for purely selfish reasons and think nothing of misrepresenting the truth.

My point is be skeptical, confirm what is presented as fact and if it is a misrepresentation of the truth (ie a lie) call them on it.

rant over. I am getting off of my soapbox for a while. :-)
