Isn't this obvious blog traffic generation against HN guidelines? I'm flagging it.

Just because it’s a link to a blog? That’s the whole point of HN to like to blogs and other content. Which guideline is it breaking?

[avip]

That was never "the whole point" of Ask HN posts. The standard is, and had been for years, to just post your question in the submission. That being said - I don't see anything in the guidelines addressing that.

I tried to paste all the content in but it exceeds 2000 characters, I thought providing my experience might help generate more discussion.

Does it make more sense to paste the link into the body of the text and just ask the question?

[walshemj]

No and why do you think the current system is good?

[avip]

I did not make any comment regarding the "goodness" of "the current system"

[d0paware]

I can move this to pastebin? Is that better?
