Anti 'blogspam' crusade (coup?) ongoing in /r/startups.
Post Body

A handful of very vocal users are taking the scourge of blogspam and turning it into their raison d'ere.

Older posts. TL:DR 'We shouldn't link to any blogs especially those with ads. Mods save us from this scourge."

Mod's answer. TL:DR "You have weapons and are an army unto yourselves. Use them and save yourselves."

There has been some very reasoned debate. "What do we want to be as a society."

and, of course, not so well reasoned counter "Put me in charge and I will take care of this blasphemy!"

Repeat so you know it's serious.

So far, three new baronies have been carved from the kingdom with the rebel 'lords' (some with good intentions and some with intentions less clear) desperately seeking pledges of loyalty.

/r/startuptalk/

/r/startupinfo

/r/startupdiscussion

And the war rages on...

My personal favorite crusader /u/leanstartup who uses the accusation 'retarded' in his effort to win new users to his cause no less than 24 times.

I'm glad I have a lot of popcorn. Good times.
