It’s not flamebait and I would really appreciate it if you would stop shadowbanning me because you don’t like my subject matter. This is nonsense behavior from HN mods.
- dang 6y agoCalling the Unabomber "a well educated erudite who saw things others did not wish to confront" is obvious, massive flamebait.
- shitbowl 6y agoI’ll quote you on this next time someone on HN quotes him stating how “prophetic” he is. It’s not the first time and not the last time, so if the problem with me agreeing with it is flamebait (but the prophetic comment isn’t), then I’m not going to bother defending it. You’re being ridiculous.
- dang 6y agoThis is not close to a borderline call. If you don't want to use HN as intended, or learn to, it's hardly a surprise if we've been banning your accounts. That's what banning is for. Other HN users have no problem staying within the site guidelines, so I assume this is mostly a choice. Why not use the site as intended, not get banned, and contribute to making it better? That's in your interest, our interest, and the community interest. Seems like a no-brainer to me. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
