I rarely post; nobody here will miss me. I won't even pretend that your advertisers will notice that I've stopped clicking through from your web site.

And I'm out of here.

Is this supposed to be funny? mbraudel was clearly not implying that these boards would suffer in content from his departure. He's making the point that there are many who do a lot of reading but not a lot of posting, and large numbers of these folks will be so offended by TPT's conduct that they will not visit the site anymore. That's reduced traffic. Reduced revenue.

Sure, it doesn't affect you (but judging strictly by the number of your posts, you do more talking than listening anyway). But if you think that reduced traffic is insignificant to TPT, I have a strong suspicion that you suck at business.
