While a big fan of John’s satire, we don’t need to bag on hg. Humble has done a great job in ragging bloggers that post a sentence drawing hits for blogs which is just an abuse of Jim Robinson’s great site.
If we want humblegunnner to be effective at slowing down that overall abuse, and it was very widespread before he started calling it out, we have to understand the useful cop function it serves.
I agree to a point. But Semmens isn’t some newbie troll, he’s been here a long time and has become an accepted part of this forum. MANY FReepers look forward to what he comes up with next. Someone (not nec. hg) with a particular dislike to either his writing or to him, personally, is not reason to start having his stuff pulled.
Humble is not a moderator. As far as I know.
If newbies and bloggers start abusing the forums - its up to the moderators to take control.
