This person has over 1000 submissions. Going for the quantity-first approach I guess...
Edit: following up my less productive comment with a productive one: this ToS update was crowd-sourced diff treasure-hunt with, at the end, no treasure to be found. These ToS changes are really quite unremarkable. I wonder which change of terms OP decided were interesting enough to post about.
This account has 50 submissions in the last two hours!
[Edit: not the parent; the posting account]
I don’t know why GP’s comment was flagged because submitting at a rate of 25 submissions PER HOUR is not done out of a genuine desire to share something that may be of interest to fellow human beings. Not even for personal bookmarking
I posted 3-4 things in the last 2 hours, not 50. That's probably why I haven't been flagged.
If you believe me, I do it by hand, and I do it for things that I genuinely believe can be interesting for the HN community.
And yes, a secondary benefit of my submissions is that they also act as a sort of bookmark, because obviously when I submit something that I deem interesting, it's also good to be able to easily retrieve it later.
I stand corrected. You posted only 6 submissions in the last 24 hours.
Not my place to judge you. (I used the Hack for HN app on iOS which, incorrectly, showed 50 hits).
I apologize.
Thanks a lot for this. I really appreciate you correcting your previous statement.
And, please, if you find what I do annoying (posting submissions frequently), let me know here, or email me (it's in my profile) and I will be happy to hear your arguments.
The last thing I want to do is harass people online.
I care about HN and dislike bots and automated posting taking away real human interaction. You're not a bot - which I had already noted from your profile - and I have no problem with people posting frequently; and even if I did, that would be as valuable as any random person's opinion. So please don't let my error keep you from being you.
