- dang 10y agoPlease don't create many obscure throwaway accounts; we ban those. HN is a community. Anonymity is fine, but users should have some consistent identity that other users can relate to. Otherwise we may as well have no usernames and no community, and that would be an entirely different forum. I think you have a fair point about offtopicness (and we've penalized that subthread for that reason), but the way you chose to make it—not just the multiple throwaways, but also the unsubstantive snark and (elsewhere) outright incivility—is not ok on this site.
