You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Is my current tagline too spammy/commercial? I'll delete it if there's a consensus in that direction.

If it were a direct link, there might be some argument against, I think. It's not like you're having pop-ups show up.

If I only had a brain...
You're a long-established member of the community, so I don't see it as a problem. It's clear that you're here for the company, not the commercial opportunities. If somebody joined solely for the purpose of spamming a URL, that would be different.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We just have to be careful we're consistent.
Have you added it to the links page, Susan?

There's also precedent. Evil Jimi has used his tag since the TT days to pimp the site he runs. No one has ever had a problem with that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Deb's used her tag to pimp her books too. I think we're fine.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Yep, I was about to say what Dana said. The publication of a book is a defining moment in my life at the moment, so I talk about it; it never occurred to me that there's a problem with it. There's no link with pop-ups, or anything.
But if there is a problem, can someone let me know? I'll change it, no problem.
Um, no other problem, I mean. Too many problems in my problem post this morning.

No, I hadn't thought of that.
And thanks, y'all. I figured I was on similar ground with Deb mentioning new releases, but I just wanted to make sure others viewed it in the same light.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'd say that, if someone's participating as a member of the community, with something in their tagline advertising whatever, then we're cool. If someone comes in just to advertise, then there's a problem, but I don't see any problems with anyone's tag.
