I wasn't raelly aiming for 'rude', so much as playfully befuddled and sly. I'm just saying that this is pretty blatant and it seems odd to me that no one is batting an eye when this guy regularly bumps this thread every time it fades.
I'm not trying to be a dick, but over the years I've seen at least a handful of threads closed and at least a couple people banned because they joined just to advertise their site or a product. It is different if it is a long-term member who is proud of something they've worked on and want to encourage their friends and fellow posters to 'help a brother out' (like one of the writers with a new book), but I don't want the BBS to become a regular venue for 'plants' and this kind of advertising. We're here to geek out together as equals, not be pitched to by the studios.
I don't know the rules, so maybe this is just fine, I'm not asking the guy be banned or anything. . . but there is interest enough in the show that at this point that I think we can discuss it on our own without help from someone 'encouraging' it.
On that note: I think the new teasers are quite a bit better than the first, though both Kahlan and Richard's voice-overs are pretty painful. Regardless of that though, consider me slightly more likely to watch.
