alt Hacker NewsOh wow, You're a human with a high submission rate! I assumed accounts like these were bots. I've seen a large number of accounts like yours in `/newest`, indeed, it's the reason I made the default demo penalize high submission rates. If you don't mind me asking, what are you submission habits? Do you just submit links you find interesting often? And does the karma rewards factor into your routine submissions?
(I'm not being facetious or accusatory, I'm genuinely interested learning how some of these high submission rates operate, since a lot look automated).
haha, no worries.
> what are you submission habits? Do you just submit links you find interesting often?
Pretty much. I will often email myself links I think might be interesting, then batch up submissions. I also like to highlight friends' posts.
> And does the karma rewards factor into your routine submissions?
It's always fun to get karma, but I like the fact I can call attention to someone or something that deserves it more.
I also wrote and talked about my thoughts on HN and how to be a good community member a bit more:
