One consequence of this behaviour is that you will only get the attention of people who use Twitter the way you do.

Some of us read all our tweets and only follow people who make this reasonable. We can't really follow people who post 10 times a day, so you're losing us as a potential audience. It's possible this is a worthwhile tradeoff.
