I don't really like this idea all that much. I consider it spam when a new account posts anything just to attempt to get some quick and easy eyeballs on their project/startup and they have never contributed to HN before that. It feels like they are trying to game our system and I think your offer would only help them do that. What's wrong with earning your way to a RMS post? It would weed out the people who wouldn't stick around for the long run anyway.
- njethwa 16y agoI think it is a good idea because how else an individual with no budget get his startup started :) I think this is part of bootstrapping, lending a hand and giving a fair chance,imho
- yatsyk 16y agoI like the idea. I would not consider users that don't contribute enough to hn but want to get feedback equal to spammers. May be such egoistic approach is not so good for community but this is not spamming. If Luke wants to donate his time, risk his karma and review few RMS submission from news users I would only support him. At least he could find some gems and it's good for community.
