Right, I was only told flat-out that I was banned for the Snowden comment, but by all means, go ahead and rewrite history and make it about the totally innocuous comment that preceded it. Wouldn't be the first time I've seen it done on HN.
It's really no wonder this site has the reputation it does in the tech community these days.
- dang 9y ago"Told flat-out" by whom? When? I'll happily apologize if I'm wrong about this, but having just looked at the data, I'd be shocked. There are only two people who would have been in a position to tell you such a thing. One doesn't show up in that data set, the other is me, and I know I wasn't banning people just for a yay-Snowden. More definitively, the ban trail starts with the predecessor comment (i.e. 6170753 not 6183189). Had we banned you for 6183189 the prior comment would never have been killed.
