I don't think flagging the story with momentum and commenting on the story with no upvotes is the right thing to do, it'll result in two buried threads (a flag is a potent downvote). Just ask them to update the URL of this post instead. Usually mods are pretty quick to do a swap for posts that are on the front page.
- dragontamer 8y agoHmmm... well I've unflagged the topic then. I just didn't know exactly how to get the mod's attention. At this point, it seems clear that "this" topic has more momentum. But both the topics were at only ~3 votes when I made my post.

- dragontamer 8y agoCool. I'll do that next time. Its a bit late for this topic, since it has so much more momentum than the other topics now.
