I've been straight up told I don't say/write things in a way that deserves any attention at all
These sound like the people you do not want at a party! I wish I could bring humour and interest with all my work.
I think If i a) didn't have a post planned (so's not to double dip autos) and b) saw an awesome post buy a newcomer (unaware of communities) very suitable to a community I enjoyed, that would be my reasoning for clicking the button.
Sometimes I wonder why anyone would want to own stake in and entertainment based attention economy like thing when they have no use for entertainment, or can't understand that approach of mine. I don't hold it against them though.
I think we should have the option to select which communities our post will show up in, before we hit the 'post' button. Then all the cross posting stuff could be used for examples like you've given, plus probably a few more good ones.
If consumers want to do all the cross posting, then I don't need to decide where to place my work. They can do it and be rewarded for it. For instance, as a content producer, I don't know about that community for horror stories. If it exists but I don't know, how would I know to place it there if I write a horror? There will be thousands of these communities. You can't expect me to select hundreds of places and cross post into each one. That would be absurd and counter productive.
One persons entertainment is another persons shit-posting circle jerk i guess :)
At least you can start with housing your post into 1 community, and I think it will become more important to select wisely. Then you can resteem out to your own blog (which is rather strange but works) so that folks who know to pay you a visit will see your latest offerings.
Agree that in the ideal world, a consumer aware of a community that suits your content would be account cross-posting. Let's see how this all progresses.
I remember reading you weren't the biggest fan of these, but I'm going to issue you !ENGAGE 50 anyway!
HA! It's just frustrating when the spam makes the comment section impossible to read. I felt really bad one day after downvoting this endless stream of beer... but I had to.
Damn, downvoting beer - I just don't think I could do it. You could always mute the accounts and collect up the tokens anyway, but yeah, for the consumer trying to find the interesting post additions, it can make things tougher.
