I'm a newbie here, I've been here about a week. I've noticed the disputes regarding the bot wars, but it's given me a big dilema. Do I use the bots and increase my chances of getting noticed. I may gain followers but run the risk of being downvoted and losing reputation. Or, do I not use them. In which case, I stand little chance of getting noticed any time soon. I've only written a couple on posts but I have noticed that they get buried quickly. I would much rather get promoted based on the quality of my work and infomation, but how do you get noticed without cheating per-sa and using bots?

One way you can branch out is to join special interest groups that are relevant to your posts. Specifically, groups that aim to help their members grow. I'm one of the mods for @gamersunited. We're mainly geared towards gaming related posts, but anyone is welcome to join.
If we minnows band together to build each other up, everyone flourishes. I figure leading by example is the best course of action.
