User blog comment:Umbrello/Self Promotion Makes Me Feel Weird/@comment-26054278-20150722011549/@comment-25947144-20150722083300

Yeah, Humboldt does that a lot. Knew that even before seeing all those messages. But it also works out for him, to the point that we imediately click on pages just edited by him.

The self promotion never bothered me before, partly because I don't have too much to be promoted. But if someone has 6-7+ stories and most of them are barely commented, then he has to act it out. In this exact moment, there are a lot of people just hanging around here with nothing to read.

The Writer's Showcase unfortunately doesn't work as good as it should. Many people barely know it exist and usualy the stories are either too long or the readers are not in the mood (too lazy) to read them
