Obviously those listed above care. It's not hard to just read the guideline and follow it. If not we would have to scroll past 100 + comments congratulating someone in order to see the next birth announcement. It's just annoying. @MamaismyJOB
I care. Bothered the crap out of me. If everyone congratulated everyone (on that thread) it would be forever long and be confusing and hard to read. That's why the rule exists. Thanks @danabsd for posting this. :-)
It defeats the entire purpose of the thread when people do this. How hard is it, really, to read the very first post there and respect the one request that it makes of people?
It bothers me, but what bothers me more is that the thread was created by Voldemod. It sort of takes the joy out of it, because I get angry when I see her name.

I remember seeing one comment on a name and thinking "but I thought she said not to do this?" but kept going about my day. Glad I'm not the only one who was a little bothered
It annoyed me too! Plus I get a little excited when I see there is a new post there, then irritated when I see it's not an actual announcement.
^ This!
Yup, total let down when all I want to do is sqwueee at all the cute new babies. That's why most announcements attach a link to their separate birth story post. Comment your heart out on those, just not in the actual announcements thread.

Everyone who love tited it should go back and undo it. Atleast that way it will look like no one cared that she started it. :-B
