- colordrops 11y agoWhy is that a problem? The person got a lot of points because people liked this persons contributions. People with more reputation should be allowed to post more.
- mahranch 11y agoThe problem is promoting quality content people want to read. What if hackernews was just all viagra ads from spammers? Would you be fine with that? I sure wouldn't. That's the problem. Instead of quality content making it to the top or 'front page', people who pay the most can make it to the front page regardless of content quality.
