At least he wrote something that created decent conversation. You on the other hand come across as pompus...pretty sure Mods can take care of these situations.
You are like Campus Security...no actual authority but you love the power trip.

I'm not power tripping at all and I didn't intend to come across as pompous. Caged Great asked what we thought of the article and I gave my honest opinion, which I felt were fair. I notice that he has promoted the articles he wrote a lot recently on this site and I respectfully asked him to simply post what he wrote instead of directing traffic off the site. He responded by quoting a user guideline and claiming he didn't own the copyright even though he wrote it. I responded by quoted a different user guideline saying no self-promotion.
If Caged Great had seeked permission to promote and link his articles then I appologize and have no problem with it. But from my perspective hey he's a member here, why not express his opinion here, include his blog in his sig, and then write whatever he wants elsewhere? To be fair, if I have a blog of my own, I don't think it's fair for me to make a thread about every article I wrote and direct traffic to my site.
