speaking only for myself - I have both upvoted and downvoted various of your posts, but mostly ignored them. I'd intended to ignore this as well, but since you ask...

"disapprove" is the wrong word. I wish you luck and success in raising the sanity waterline. I am voting more along the lines of "this isn't why I come to LessWrong". It would be fine in bragging or media threads, or if you started a monthly "outreach" post that'd be fine too. But I 'd rather see fewer top-level posts that don't have a direct point or actual question for debate.

Thanks for letting me know! I hope some of the upcoming changes to the LW infrastructure will allow more clear delineation of posts.

Just chuck em in an open thread instead

Oh, and here's an idea - I'll put a [Outreach] in the title before future posts to clarify things so that people don't click on it if they don't wish.
