Honestly, does it really matter if someone reads the articles that you submit or not? Come on now, stop taking yourself so seriously.
The rules of Hacker News are pretty simple. The articles are submitted with the titles of the article. Sure, sometimes it doesn't work out well, but most times it does. And it significantly reduces decision making time for the moderators, which given their work, is likely much more important than your vanity of getting karma points.
If you want people to pay attention, why not post it to reddit or some other forum?

- steven2012 13y agoYou submit it for fun, in hopes that people read it and that it generates some discussion. But if no one reads it, then don't have a tantrum. Understand that a lot of it is luck-based, and in the end, it's not that important.
