writers could easily write 12000 word at 2 or 3 nights and get the same.

Just wanted to address this - it's not possible to write 12,000 words in "2 or 3 nights". It takes about four hours to write a good quality 1000 word article. Hemmingway used to manage just 500 words a day.

You might see people uploading fairly long stories - but it's unlikely they wrote it in a couple of nights - more likely they sweated blood writing it over many months and sometimes years, and then found they could publish on devtome so uploaded their existing work.

Yes, I may say as a ideal situation your opinion is right and i admit that, but as you say it should be "good quality", someone may write diary and also got the same shares... and it's hard (no good automatic method) to tell whether good or not an article is, while we could easily distingush good and average softwares from bad ones, because they should at least runs and works right... right?
