++Lar, are you saying that you disagree that your post was a flog? It sure
read like a flog to me, and only after you called it a brag was I able to
see more insight into its purpose and agree that it's more a brag than a
flog. But it's also a flog, IMHO.

There's definitely something to be said for someone who can comfortably
admit that he was bragging.

That's a matter of opinion, I think. Now, the tone and the underlying
message of your post probably annoyed the living snot out of dozens of
people, but it didn't technically break the TOS as far as I can tell. Did
it break the spirit of the TOS? That's hard to say, but that's not really
relevant anyway unless you're showing a pattern of trying to walk the line
just for the sake of walking the line. You've shown a history of trying to
walk the line for the sake of flogging and bragging, but not for the sake of
walking the line per se. (Hmm, I wonder which is more destructive to the
community? Certainly neither is positive.)

I would cite this:

but that's more of a polite request than a mandate.
There's always someone in the crowd who pushes the limits because they can.
