That's actually how I found you. I shared my post in one of those groups, then scrolled through the recent posts and clicked on one of your titles.

I hate link bombing. If I see you've legitimately clapped and responded on my post, I will read yours. But, those folks flooding the comments thread on my posts with their link – and there's no sign of activity from them on my post on Medium – I will ignore them. For particularly egregious offenders, I will tell them I don't respond to link-bombing.

In my writers forum group (it's not Medium dedicated), WE PAW Bloggers group (for which I am owner/admin), link-bombing is strictly prohibited.
