Is it just me or is this thread absolutely nothing more than a plug for a different website? Do you think we'll see a single response from our new FRiend? Is this the manner in which the forum should be used?

This is becoming more and more common and it is classic troll behavior--this poster is trolling for folks to be lured away to a different site. I say "Troll, begone!"

I agree with you. This is a troll and we're seeing this more and more.

1) It isn't just you. 2) Doubt it. 3) No.

If I ever post stuff from my blog, I make sure to post the articles in their entirety. Other blogging FReepers in good standing, such as mhking, do the same. You can go to my site if you wish; to post my own stuff otherwise without a good reason would be little more than trolling for hits. And, of course, as a VK, I have renounced all trollishness. :)

It would help if his posts were more than two lines, as well. I hate two-line vanity/pimp threads more than anything.
