he’s right; it happened to me too. new low-karma accounts can’t post anything without being banned, blocked or flagged. wanna bet they won’t even let me post this comment?
I believe there's an algorithm that sifts though each submission if it makes the cut. I'm thinking if username is part of submission link - might be cause to weigh the submission harder. Anyhow, those that do happen to end up being marked dead ... it's then up to other users who are viewing new posts (including dead ones) to vouch for them, the forum is all day and folks like me only go back 4 or 5 hours to see if there's anything interesting including those that are dead that might be actually interesting. More often based on the title of the post alone for me to decide to look deeper. Most days I don't vouch a thing, today just the one.
You'd IMO, done better to ask what others think is good taste when it comes to a product that's new or being updated.
