RE: OCD's stance on cross-posting and news about empowering niche communities
hasn't been used that way as of yet and we believe for many reasons it will be avoided by smart farmers because it's too high profile and too easy to find them. They have too many other methods to hide their farming. But if you see cases bring them to the attention to people
What people will do first is post their full post to multiple communities... they'll do that way before using cross-posting.
How is that possible? As far as I know we are only allowed to use one community tag as the first tag.
That would actually solve the problem of publishing the same content (cross-posting) multiple times.
Just copy paste the whole post and post it again to a new community. Cross-posts are more visual than that other method.
You are suggesting to post the same content multiple times? :)
If I remember correctly up until now all the copy pasted posts (copies of older posts, or posted few times) were considered abuse and reported. Those accounts were then downvoted and put in blacklists for spam/reward abuse.
