It's one of the social norms on HackerNews that "low-value" comments like "Love it!" and "+1" are discouraged. Although such comments are polite to the poster, they add nothing but noise for all the other readers of the thread.
Instead, it seems to be preferred that you simply upvote the post without replying.
- DDerTyp 9y ago+1 agree
- welder 9y agoThat one part was very important and needed to be called out from the rest of his comment.
- teach 9y agoI don't disagree with you. I'm just explaining why you were downvoted/flagged. HNers are going to downvote anything that looks like a "+1" so maybe try rewording your comment in the future. Instead of just a pulled-out quote and a thumbs-up, quote and then add a couple of sentences explaining why that part was very important.
