One serious turn off is the let's make a deal statement. "Read, comment, engage, then drop your link." Then there's the link drops on stories that say read and commented or read and clapped, but they never show up on your list of claps or comments. When people link drop I've gotten to the point I will go and look at my claps and comments to check, unless I posted a story and 30 seconds later someone claims to have read a 9 minute story. Then I don't bother.
