Since you bring it up, and since I was just looking at your favorited comments, I wonder if you could clarify: Should we attach any significance to the fact that your 3 most recent saved favorites are all [dead]? It makes me think that your opinion of what a good comment is may not agree with the official position, and that you might have suggestions for how the moderation could be improved.
- danso 8y agoI use the favorite-function for posts more than I do for comments, because generally great posts contain more than one great comment in the discussion anyway. I haven't really used it for comments, so I guess I've decided to use it for comments that shock/make me laugh :). For the aforementioned comment about 4-color-map theory, I thought it shouldn't be debunked because the person seemed to attempt to substantively debate (until he apparently gave up). I mean, the comment should have been downvoted to oblivion for being so definitively wrong. I just associate flag-killing with comments that are obviously abusive.
- quickthrower2 8y agoThere is no official position! Something can be dead because it is flagged, in which case a bunch of people didn't like it (for valid reasons or not...) or because the user is new and all their stuff is marked dead until someone comes along and vouches.
