I see this defense quite a lot on the internet, and I think it's misplaced. Even without your comment, I would have downvoted you, not because I though you were in earnest, but because your sarcastic comment doesn't add anything to the conversation.
- CaptSpify 8y agoI think it adds a lot to the conversation. It's an obviously poor argument, which points out how poor it is when Mozilla uses it to make obviously poor choices.
- huhtenberg 8y agoTechnically, your comment doesn't add much to the conversation either.
- albertgoeswoof 8y agoIf you believe that your comment adds value, then so must the parent comment. If that’s true then your comment is false and adds no value. Quite paradoxical.
- 0xffff2 8y agoI agree that my comment is of extremely limited value. Usually I just down vote and move on for that very reason. Today I chose to explain why instead. The difference is that I believe that my comment has a very small positive value, while I believe that the comment I responded to has a small to moderate negative value.
