Would you mind linking some of them?
- donatj 6y agohttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24045615 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24045615 is the most recent example and the only one I remember off the top of my head.
- kreetx 6y agoBut what did you say? (Perhaps you can link it to pastebin or something)
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoI certainly see why that post was flagged. (Not only flagged, it earned a rebuke from dang, because the poster was apparently a repeat offender.) That certainly appeared to be trolling. That said, if you disagree with the flagging, you can vouch for the post. The moderators do reconsider if people (past some threshold?) vouch for a flagged post.
- jgwil2 6y agoIn the very first reply, dang explains that the account was banned for repeated violations, so it's not just the content of that particular comment that got it flagged, but rather the account itself was banned so the comment was marked dead. Frankly, however, if the commenter had wanted to create a discussion rather than troll, they could have used a vastly different tone. Just because there might be some interesting topic buried under the layers of sarcasm doesn't necessarily redeem it. If you want to discuss it, maybe you could elaborate on what you found interesting and post a separate response to the parent, and do so more civilly than this comment.
