Trouble is none of them care! The blog commenters are bots and will never "see" what has been edited.
it's simply a very selfish attitude to everything. You only need to look over the RLE forum to see what kind of people many of them are.
There is probably less than twenty members out of all the RLE posters that actually venture out into other forums and offer something back to the general WMT community.
The rest simply don't care about anyone else, they hijack threads with their own LE request posts, they start new duplicate threads every day (and more) because their thread is not on the front page or "bump" their thread back to the top. All this creates work for the admin and mod team trying to police their antics.
It's the same with StumbleUpon, and any other website in the same vein. It doesn't matter one bit to them whether anyone actually uses it for the purpose it was conceived, all they can see is something they can exploit and maybe make a few quid (bucks) out of for very little effort on their part.
Jamie has a thread in the suggestions forum ( LE for PR ) and believe me, we do try to exercise control over it but it is a arduous task. A mod would have to spend 2 hours a day, every day to keep it clear.
Getting rid of it would escalate the amount of cleanup in many other forums as they would simply spread the posts far and wide, annoying more community members in doing so.
