What will it take, finally, for ALL of your writers to always, always, always -- every time, without fail -- remember to include such important things as THE NAME OF THE MANUFACTURER and ITS WEB SITE URL in all of your product articles?!?!?!?!

What, at long last, will it take?

THIS IS NOT JOURNALISM that you're doing, here. You may THINK it is, but it is not. Have any of you even actually BEEN to journalism school? Or taken a journalism course? OR EVEN READ A BOOK ABOUT JOURNALISM??!?! Have any of you ever even heard of the implicit rule of all articles of this type which says that ALL of the following things must always be answered in said types of articles: Who, what, when, where, why, how? Could you please just bother to READ A BOOK about journalism? An article, maybe? A blog posting? Something? Anything? Please? If you did, you'd realize what an egregeous thing you're doing with your articles which include either or both of no mention of the manufacturer, or a link to its web site. You do it all the time. It's outrageous... unconscionable. Shame.

We've all learned to tolerate that English is obviously not your first language (which isn't, in and of itself, a bad thing), and that you will not bother to get even remotely good at it before daring to write, commercially, in it (which is); but you cannot, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, be so reckless as to write articles (in ANY language) about things which do not include the absolute BASICS: Who, what, why, when, where and how! How are such articles useful, other than as mere curiosity, if you do not include the BASICS?

Hmmm?

GET A CLUE, for godsake! I've complained about this REPEATEDLY here. No one in your "organization" is paying attention. What is the problem? Are you all just oblivious... or aloof... or arrogant... or what?

Shame on you! I don't CARE that this posting is coming across as an over-the-top rant by a seemingly crazy person; and that it will be Google-able as that forever. I don't care. Nothing less that this seems to be getting your attention; and I'm under no illusion, in fact, that even THIS will get your attention. NOTHING, in fact, seems to get your attention.

So, again, shame on you for the complaint in chief of this posting; but shame on you even more for ignoring all the other times herein that I've written it.

Shame. On. You.

Another nice catch, Little Arminius. Looks like Elmer has gone off the deep end, or whatever end is beyond the deep one.?

So according to Gleggy, you can't write a review unless you've been to journalism school and you meet his high standards for product identification. What a cunt.

That website is probably just some guy who thought it would be helpful to others to share his opinion and experience, just as we all do. Or all of us who are normal and decent and not trying to marry off people of the same gender to each other.

Shame on YOU, Elmer. Get a clue, Elmer. Read a fucking DALE CARNEGIE book, you twat.
