i'm still surprised you haven't ceded admin rights to the HN facebook group to PG. have you asked him about it? how is your facebook group squatting any different than prateek's hackernews.in (now hackerstreet.in) debacle? you're leveraging someone elses brand for your own personal gain ("look at me, i'm the hackernews group facebook admin. i approve or reject members to my group at my discretion.")
..and i get downvoted for bringing this up (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1766651 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1766651)?
- ld50 16y agoalso, do you code?
- jasonlbaptiste 16y agoYou're jumping to conclusions here. a) I actually don't want to have to approve/reject people. Facebook forces me too. I clicked 2,000 approve buttons on day one. b) pg doesn't have facebook. he and anyone who knows me, knows I would cede admin rights. c) I'm not leveraging it for my own personal brand, it's a Facebook group. I get no personal benefit out of it. I love the community here and set it up as a benefit to everyone else. If you have any other questions or quarrels about this, please email me: j@jasonlbaptiste.com. This thread or any on HN isn't the place for this.
- ld50 16y ago"I clicked 2,000 approve buttons on day one." so that's a "no" on the coding?
