1. He disregards FR rules by using FR to promote his blog
2. He chooses to post excerpts - not the entire article
3. By pimping his blog via FR, he is monetizing his own blog.
4. It's just cowardly to post an except and never ever the entire article or even engage in comments.
5. What part of this screenshot do you not understand re: using FR to promote his own blog?
It seems to me that when Jim Robinson, owner of this site, directly tells someone he's violating the rules, or a designated representative of the owner, usually identified as "administrator" or "moderator," directly tells someone he's violating the rules, the poster needs to sit down, shut up, and pay attention.
But so far all I ever see is ordinary members with no stated authority, including one with a fake home page alleging he's banned--bringing up this rule. I'm not aware that ordinary members speak for ownership and management here.
