That's a poor excuse in my mind.

Yeah, it gets aggravating clicking on threads frequently only to see a link to a post the author wrote on their blog. Frankly, in my view, if a blogger creates a post on this forum just to link to his blog to get traffic, then that tells me his blog doesn't get much traffic and most likely suxs. So why would I want to go visit it?
I even saw one guy who's posted here about 100 times to promote his forum community-something. I visited his forum and saw a post there from a few months ago saying he was going to join this forum and participate so he can try to get people to join his forum. He's kept an open tally of how many new members he's recruited (though he didn't detail where he recruited them from)
