I don't think there's anything to monitor… If someone is spamming, it won't be tolerated and people will ignore then. However if someone wants to share something that they've created, I think this is fantastic! They should be celebrated and if it's good, you should share it. Now there is a difference between sharing content you created, participating in discussions about your content and sharing something you've created and never participating in the community. I think people will recognize the difference and if someone is just sharing stuff they've created without participating, they will be ignored.

I'm not sure why someone wouldn't want the author, the artist, the creator to be the one to introduce them to their work...? Who better?

This has always baffled me about other communities, it's insane.

So all of you creative's out there, share away!
