A lot of the Who is hiring / who wants to be hired posts are copy pasted as they are the same, or very similar every month. What's wrong with that?

Nothing wrong with a freelancer posting the same comment every couple of months, when they’re looking for clients. That’s what these threads are for.

But using more than one account, posting in more than one thread, and doing that every single month, seems spammy. Especially when it’s coming from an agency and not an individual.

It's not an automated account, just me looking for freelance work for myself and sometimes helping my team find bigger gigs (there definitely is a demand so why not try to meet it?)

Thanks for confirming that it's not an automated account. I don't think it's ok to post as an agency though. For the record, I've added more thoughts in the other thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28058552 .
