So many mn-etters have complained about the social share buttons.
And now you have made them even bigger, brighter and more noticeable.
I understand you want to grow your business.
I interpret these new buttons to be admission that not enough people share threads on Facebook, etc now, so you make them big and bright hoping people will notice them and click.
I honestly think that most posters dont WANT to announce their membership and possibly reveal their name on Facebook or connect their Twitter with MN.
So why not just forget these buttons, eh?
