I don't think you can put hard definitions on it. HN is more like a village where people come and go, and some people of a certain mindset decide to settle. Anyone is welcome to move in, but acceptance into the village is based on your interactions. Being a nice neighbor, as it were. Lots of communication in the form of quality submissions and comments are principle. Karma score isn't as important.
- mindcrime 16y agoSure, and I should have said that I would only have expected a "ballpark range" answer. I think something like this is always going to have some fuzziness to it, especially if pg (or whoever else has power to kill posts) is making a kill/no-kill decision on a one off basis, as opposed to having it done by an algorithm. Just curious to get a rough feel, that's all. I mean, take myself... my account is 1013 days old, and my karma is > 500, but subjectively, I still think of myself as being a newb around here. I'd probably post a "Rate my Startup" thread if I had something ready to go, but I'd probably say that I feel just barely qualified to do so.
