Maybe to help you better understand where I'm coming from, I'll just speak from experience.
It is incredibly time consuming to create any artform. Impossible to produce art and read posts at the same time.
There were several times I sat for the entire day talking to several people under my posts after publishing. No time to be anywhere else. I'd be having several conversations all at once. No attention span left for anything else but that.
Rewarding them at times would burn up all my voting power. No voting power left to use on other posts and never once did I automate anything.
So I know from experience asking people to go beyond that, is too much. Saying they're not doing enough or thinking they must be a snob because they're busy in their own little world, is ludicrous. Terrible culture to have here.
And I did all that, my way, because I wanted to. Wasn't some weird set of guidelines presented to me by "The Community" putting me on that path. Blazed my own trail.
Did well, so I recommend that approach to everyone.
If you folks want quality music here, nobody will want to work all day on that, or all week, present it here, only to be told they're not doing enough by the self-appointed volunteer community standards council.
Creators create. Consumers consume. This place has always had a severe lack of actual consumers, and content creators vanish quite often because of that, and maybe due to being pushed into doing things they don't have the time to do.
