I can only hope you can make them understand - or at the very least, shut them up.<br /><br />All I can say is, for them claiming that they got REH's name out there - I never heard of the site until Maggiegate. Never heard of Mags until then either. Their assertions that "they got REH's name out there" are truly hilarious, considering I'm pretty damn sure more people have heard of REH than they've heard of their site.Taranaichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176999342965850175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7177193073415704349.post-66086417270322660702010-07-04T14:43:12.378+01:002010-07-04T14:43:12.378+01:00I listened to it.

It irritates me that we were pretty damned polite about things, and they still poked fun at the bunch of us.<br /><br />Tex: frankly, I'm sick of their nonsense, and sick of giving them free publicity. It's clear they have no interest in learning anything about Howard or giving him a good shake, and I'm deeply irritated that the olive branch I extended on The Cimmerian expressing how us Howard fans are willing to help them learn was essentially brushed away.<br /><br />I don't know if I'll post it over at the forums: as you say, they might well feed on the notoriety. Well, if that be their food, let 'em starve, and let's concentrate on the people who aren't trolling us. At the same time, though, it grinds my gears that they don't seem to have learned a damn thing...Taranaichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176999342965850175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7177193073415704349.post-51209021920260788652010-06-25T01:06:09.074+01:002010-06-25T01:06:09.074+01:00So, who's going to post about this on the foru...So, who's going to post about this on the forum?<br /><br />Or will it give the bums too many 'pings' that they don't deserve?<br /><br />Tex<br />(remembering how PainBrush nailed that Jason-dweeb on the forum, calling him out for trying to provoke us into giving him more hits on his geek site.

I could only stand to listen to her for about 60 seconds. <br /><br />But the worst thing about it is that they are defending someone who didn't do enough (or any) research and making fun of people who pointed that out. I also thought it was funny when the female acted as though it were odd for anyone to know who Robert E Howard was. She also defended the erroneous article by saying that it got Rober E Howard's name "out there".sandySTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10648039575104173815noreply@blogger.com
