I openly welcome constructive feedback on how I can improve my writing. If you think you have something good to contribute, feel free to post here or send me a pm/email.

How exactly is it a perennial excuse? As mentioned several times in the few other times I was attacked, I believed that the glitch would go public. In hindsight that was not the case and I sincerely apologize for that. Not everyone can correctly predict the future, as you can see with the UA spending requirements implemented today.

But I did ask via PM for the permission to post from the people who discovered the extra space. You don't even have the right to say that I was wrong. Did you discover the glitch? No. Do you run my blog? No.

I strive to have the strongest non-censorship and disclosure policies of ALL THE BLOGS HERE. Here are the PM's for your reference. I did not "MAKE" them up.

EDIT: FT ToS does not allow me to publish PM's. PM if you want to see details.

Again, did they say yes? It's not even an issue of theirs as its my blog, but had they said no, please don't do this, then the post wouldn't have gone up. Their concerns was that had was that the space was going to go. And look what happened...



Is there a direct cause and effect between blogs publishing deals and those deals being killed? No. So killing and stealing deals are not only strong words, but they are incorrectly used in here.
