[Principled]

Understood - in this case it is the sarcasm in your post that was probably the part that I disagree with using.

We all knew it was a vanity post. Your telling us so was extraneous. Hence the reason for telling us was to attempt to ridicule the author’s use of vanity.

Are you saying the discretion was poor?

Not a big deal. Just sayin’

Yes. Vanity threads are discouraged, as a general rule.

In this case, no. There have been many vanity threads in the past that ended up being productive. I still made comments on those threads mentioning that they were VANITIES and discouraged as a general principle. This one seems to have also been productive.

Sometimes, a person 'feels' that their 'opinion' deserves the limelight of having it's own THREAD.

Sometimes they are right.

But they still should put the word VANITY in the TITLE.
