I'd like to correct the record here, because you're Misrepresenting with a capital "M":
Comixwall shut down beacuse Soner Tari, the guy who put it all together, got butt-hurt after unsuccessfully trying to advertise his project on this mailing list. Theo's apparent tough-reply was enough to make this guy cancel his own project entirely. He literally melted down, took his toys back home, and was never heard from again. Does that sound like a project you would trust your home network to, much less your day-job-network? Imagine if it were 'okay' for calomel to advertise here? If you don't understand the question, you have some learning to do in this subject. In light of all of this, now maybe do you think the philosophy about not letting every tom-dick-n-harry advertising their projects here makes sense?
