20 sats \ 5 replies \ @Undisciplined 22h \ parent \ on: Why do ~Stacker_sports posts struggle to make it to the front page of SN? Stacker_Sports
It doesn't have to be @k00b specifically, but that's the right idea.
Look at the territory analytics. ~Stacker_Sports is growing nicely, even with Stacker News seeing less activity.
If we keep on this path, then more of our stuff will surface on the main site.
@k00b was just symbolic there you know.
I've no doubt about the success of ~Stacker_Sports because it's got interest of masses. Unfortunately high trust zappers don't like sports maybe.
And I doubt more of our stuff will ever surface on the front page if more Stackers (especially with high trust) don't zap our posts.
You can see our posts get more comments but don't get more zappers. I don't know why those who love sports have a problem to just zap 10 sats, if not more?

Wait until NFL games start back up. That's our busy season. I think we'll see a trust uptick.
For the past few months, basically the whole time there's been territory specific trust, most Americans have been checked out of sports, so we haven't had an opportunity to build our trust scores.

I also hope we soon pick up, it's just sometimes depressing not to see more zaps even on a good sports news post.
I think we should challenge non-sporty butterballs of SN for a duel on something, maybe a comment/post competition, maybe then they lose some morbidity.
