Sure, but when the last 10 comments made are archive links on submitted articles, it seems like it's just an account to farm internet points. I guess I just don't understand what the point is?
- ethanbond 4y agoTo share interesting content with people, no?
- sp332 4y agoBecause otherwise a lot of us can't even read the stories.
- hombre_fatal 4y agoI don’t get the fixation on the OP’s intentions. Let’s take it for granted that they are farming karma… by sharing content that we like. What exactly is the problem? That it’s simply not authentic enough for you? Put another way, let’s say that receiving these internet points is enough motivation for someone to find and share content that I might like. Sounds like a jackpot to me, not something I’m going to get mad about. So i’m wondering what part of this is bothering you.
- hbarka 4y agoExactly. It’s adding value. I wonder if there’s a German word for when someone objects like this. Can’t quite find it. It might be close to no good deed goes unpunished.
- viscanti 4y agoIt really grinds my gears when people do helpful things, like posting the link to read an article. Don't they know they're inflating internet points?
- klyrs 4y agoIt's a public service. Why have you only considered selfish intent?
