27 minutes ago
You might find that waiting a few more minutes might make readers more sympathetic to your thoughts. Often I suspect some users may downvote because they see both the impatience and the swearing at "you people" which they see as being every user except you.
Just a helpful hint. By the way, at 29 minutes, your comment was in the black and was not downvoted and was at #3. Welcome to Hacker News. I hope you enjoy your time on this technology site.
- discombobulate 9y agoI've been around HN for a while. It went from 2 points to 0 to 1. I had already written the edit. I decided to keep it. I probably shouldn't have. I thought it would help. I guess it shows I'm human. I don't want to come across as a psychopath. I have a tendency to stick to ideas others feel are wrong (vs actually being wrong). Actually, HN is quite good on that front. Accepting logic. Edit: Could have lied here. Just took the downvotes. Edit2: Which is what I just learned. Better to be disliked & be truthful. In most cases. (Would lie to someone trying to murder me, for example. Despite what Kant says).
- always_good 9y ago> It went from 2 points to 0 to 1. So you were complaining about 2 downvotes?
- discombobulate 9y agoI wanted to eat dinner (it's late in the UK) & took the time to type out the comment. Yes. Edit: I've also already said I would wait in future. Not sure what else you'd like.
