Tell HN: You guys are beating back the crap
In the last 24 hours, I've seen at least two ridiculous threads of speech get killed faster than I can even rant about it. I think you've got this now. The bullshit isn't taking hold like I thought. I'm starting to really want to rep HN again, and join in. I doubt this is necessary to say, but I'm stoked.
- siscia 10y agoCan you explain a little better? Maybe your point is valid, but I completely miss what you are talking about. Without an explanation your point comes across just as a noisy random rant... Maybe you are right, but as long as I can't understand what you are saying you are wasting time (yours and mine...)
- mtmail 10y agoI agree. Read the comment 3 times and can't tell if it describes something positive or negative.
- coderdude 10y agoIt probably does come off as a random rant unless you read all the comment threads on here. Lately, a lot of the nonsense opinions are finally being killed instead of being upvoted to the top. My random post was my way of saying, thank God. Just proud of the community.
- Vaskivo 10y agoI don't know the context but if these opinions are being upvoted don't they have a bit of value? Or at least they should be analysed on why people hold that opinion.

- wayn3 10y agoplease explain what a "thread of speech" is? which issue does this relate to?
