To The Groups Spamming This Sub-Reddit

26  2011-09-01 by snakestomper

Stop being so lazy, all you are going to do is destroy this sub. I will never understand why you guys don't take 30 minutes to make it less obvious. This Sub-Reddit has a large number of readers, but has always had a low post and low up-vote brigade. When you come in and post and your top stories consistently get substantially more up-votes than any other post in a given 24 hour period people realize what is going on. I know people are trying to make money on the internet but if your goal is to drive traffic you are taking a very shortsighted approach.

Just come out and say you are trying to promote a blog or whatever, readers will support open promotion in the long run if the content behind it is good. Why just spam to yourself, isn't the point to get long-term outside interest?

I agree with whats being said. theres too many political pieces getting put in the conspiracy sub-reddit when they should be in the politics section. I posted two good pieces on the connection between the British royal family and satanist paedophile rings and they just disappeared bacause of mainstream CNN type pieces. In these dark times we need this info to get out to has many people has possible. not hidden away by security service drones.

you do know that the politics subreddit moderators have without the desire of the readers forbidden any non linking posts on that subreddit now.

Basically now you can't post any interesting conclusion statements there whci used to be the best stiff on the politics reddit because they of course were only limited by logic and not a link to a mainstream media source.

You think the people who are spamming actually take the time to look at posts?

We should just start a sub that is geared towards using only science and proven fact to explain these things.

Agreed, if someone posts saying "Hey Reddit, check out my new blog/site/video" and it's good i'm definitely more inclined to upvote and check back more often than if they were to spam the site and hide their site with shitty hidden-promotion and upvotes from their own throw-away's.
