I personally didn't mind Rsync. While it is "lazy posting" because it's not adding anything to the conversation besides a link, it is still providing a service.

If you have any ideas as to what type of Rsyncesque type of content you want posted, I'd be happy to contribute, but personally I thought the bot did a pretty decent job.

Which bot? @hn? It only posts from HN, it misses a lot of sources

afaik it wasn't a bot even if it was bot-like.

So Rsync was a user? Well shit, I learned something new.

I guess if you're looking for more news posts I can contribute. I'll just make sure I read and comment on it instead of just just dropping links.

They were routinely a top stacker, so there's a ecological niche that's unoccupied currently. They had a relatively poor selection process for what they posted so I imagine the ROI on their activity can be improved a lot too.

Agreed. People should just post a poll on links. Was this article useful Yes/No. Then it's painless to voice your opinion and easier to get a sense of what SN likes.
