They post about late columns, etc. here because they know the people they're trying to communicate with is going to read it. They're also trying to drum up business for their site, the same way myself, Vinnie, Quinn, Donnachana, you, Johnson, etc. do sometimes.
Make fun of the content, that's fine, but making fun of WHY they're doing it, and you're living in a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge glass house.
They came together because of this board. The name of their site is unfortunate and should be changed, but the fact that a bunch of people started a website because they wanted other people to read their stuff or look at their cartoons is no different from any other site on the internet. And they plug it here a bit too much, well sure, they're excited about it. Just as I talk about it, or you talk about everything, they want people to know about it and see it.
