Signs of being Petty

General

I myself shall give the sign, idle talk.
It was written long ago, words of wisdom, petty talk.
In the realm where words take flight,
Where gossip whispers through the night,

In the echo chamber of petty talk,
Where wisdom often seems to walk.
In the garden of wisdom, there's much to learn,
Yet, often, some are pricked with the thorn of petty talk.

So, let's speak with care, and speak with purpose,
With wisdom and restraint, and speak with force.
For in the realm of petty talk, it's not just words we sow,
But seeds of wisdom, and seeds of growth.

I care about the quality of the website... which may be petty of me.

I didn't "leave it out", I wasn't including that as a reasonable motivation.

Talk becomes petty when it is far too voluminous.

Thinking mainly of your own reputation doesn't mean you care about "the quality of the website".

The two do not go hand in hand.

Tangentially, touching only briefly, as in one point.

It is your prerogative to disagree with what I think would be for the betterment of the website but I can assure you it is not motivated by my thinking of my reputation. Your projection is rooted in your own pettiness.

And yet, Carl Jung might beg to differ with you, if he were here.
