I'm so tired of users who routinely submit links to every single article they write- whether on topic or not- in order to generate ad revenue. Yesterday this user posted a link to some lame article about a cop punching a guy in the face. How about submitting a couple of your favorites that actually might be relevant here? If we like your stuff maybe we'll subscribe to your RSS feed or something. We don't need this site junked up with submissions of every single article from whatever sites a hundred different users are trying to plug.
"How about submitting a couple of your favorites that actually might be relevant here? " That's what I'm trying to do - and I'm pretty sure that's most of the publishers/writers/bloggers who post here are trying to do. If were submitting everything we posted, there would be many, many more submissions. In any case, sometimes the HN folks like the stuff I submit, and sometimes they don't. I think that works pretty well, no?
