Actually, that struck me as really uncharacteristic as well.
As for the later post about Brodes trying to become a big player... Well, he does post his fair share most the time anyway, pushing his own mud. I think the original post seemed unoffensive enough and with little double meaning behind it.
I mean, some of us still open doors for people with the unconscious 'ulterior motive' of feeling good about ourselves for doing something nice, to see someone smile, or just try to help others.
Unfortunately, it does seem to be a dying motive, nowadays.
People post reviews up top, Mudconnector has a random mud slot, even after all the arguments I can't see the problem with Brodes just posting a blurb of 'this looks interesting' on a mud that isn't in the top whatever. Who is he to post his opinion? Who are any of us? Some people might catch something in the reading if they're looking for a new place and give it a shot. Others might not. Its no skin off anyone's teeth unless the mud owenr doesn't want it. And what then? Brody just edit/deletes the 'offending' post? No biggie. Otherwise, if you're not interested, don't read.
*shrugs*
