It looks like you started a wildfire! :) I understand your blog post to the limit I can understand it, but I have no idea what they're talking/arguing about.

I'll created an account. Does clicking "favorite" mean an upvote? I did that.

Also, did you post the blog link? I don't see it. All I see is your blog title.

@lesley I'm interested how did you understood so soon that someone linked thirtybees page? Or you was told by someone ...? Or you are following the forum and noticed the post? Or there is such SEO tool which could detect new links within minutes?

@lesley I want to know this, too!

I posted the post, I thought with their community it would do well there. I watch our analytics pretty closely as well. I knew something was up when it jumped to 140 users on our site at once.

Luring them in with that secret addictive code! :laughing:

Nope, it's this little upwards pointing triangle to the left of the title. It says "upvote" if you hover over it.

And yes, it's amazing how UI-ignorant this site is, considering it's targeted to developers.
