But wasn't the troll article upvoted by the majority of HN users to get to the front page? Isn't that worthy of ridicule? I could, of course, press the "Flag" link and in doing so achieve absolutely nothing: I'm in the minority here. I'm honestly at a loss here. I did expect HN to moderate the discussions, but I didn't expect such strict policing of my behaviour.
