The way youâve gone about it seems reasonable enough to me (i.e. I donât think you need to do anything to correct it now).
I still think it is ideal to run a critique like this past an organisation firstâprimarily because of the chance of misunderstandings. Iâm being agnostic here about whether a misunderstanding would be your fault or the fault of AIM for using ambiguous terms/â entering the wrong number etc⊠The thing weâd be trying to avoid is spreading a critique of an organisation that is based on a hard to dispel/âcorrect misunderstanding (many more people would see a critique than a correction).
I explain in the post that the mod team can help you get some feedback from the org first if youâd rather not do it yourself/â donât feel you have a warm enough lead. Just dm me on the Forum if youâd like that help in the future.
PS- given âIâm new to posting on the Forum and Iâd take your read on the convention seriouslyâ Iâd also add that I think youâd get more readers if you shared the whole post here. When I first saw this I thought this was the whole post (link-post and cross-post are pretty easy to conflate on the Forum). If you instead want people to spend time on your blog website, Iâd just make sure to put a âcontinue readingâ link at the end. Though, youâll get more comments if you put the full post on the Forum.
Cheers!
