You're kidding right?

Those hundredths of a mile on a bike add up. I like to measure my runs to the thousandths place...

Blah, Blah, Blah!!! Those hundredths of a mile could be the difference of me being on top of the mileage board or second place!!

Anything to be on top baby!!

So are you admitting that you do care about the mileage board?

Only now that I've learned it makes so many people mad.

So basically you are saying you're a jerk. You are a self proclaimed non-contributor to the community (you previously mentioned you don't check other peoples blogs or comment) and despite a huge plea for you to participate in the group that you've decided to join you continue to ignore the requests of those around you. (over 500 other people are true members that oblige by the majority request). I'm confused why someone would join anything just to disrupt it. Many people care about this blog and spend lots of time on it to focus on their training and to help their fellow bloggers. While from your current trend your only focus is to upset people. Way to go dude... I bet you were one of those kids in school that would prefer to get sent to the principal's office just so people would look at you instead of working hard to earn the respect of others...

I've thought about it a little (ok a lot) and keep in mind that some of my best friends are jerks. I find it funny that I should care at all but I'm trying to protect the blog. The main thing here is that you've had a lot of people "mad" but also a lot of people take time to give well thought out arguments of why what you are doing is hurting the quality of the features on the blog. The fact that you had one of the hottest topics ever on the blog as far as number of comments goes points to the seriousness with which other runners take this issue...
