How does one vouch for this?
I don't think this article deserves to be flagged. I'm also unclear if whoever flagged it was trying to flag the article itself or the discussion it created.
- detaro 9y agoYou can only vouch for things that have been killed by flags (are [dead])
- alexandercrohde 9y agoOh. Does the flag penalize it in the rankings?
- detaro 9y agoYes, flags have quite strong impact on ranking.
- alexandercrohde 9y agoSo there's no way I can "vouch" for it to not be buried somewhere off the front page? That's too bad. I understand the intent of the algorithm, but personally I feel these are some of the great conversations of our age being held by some very smart people and it seems like the discussions keep disappearing once they get good.
