Hi. > please don't patronize me. I don't know what you're referring to there. > I'm not "doing posts that are nothing but conspiracy theory" This very page we are commenting on seems about and motivated by nothing but your conspiracy theory about why your post was lower on the list than you expected. The paper whose title you changed, it seems to me, was most likely flagged by a few people, which takes it lower down the list I believe, mainly because of your many flaky-seeming meta-comments on it. You sabotaged it yourself, in multiple ways. Maybe it would've got flagged down that far anyway, I don't know. I'm trying to help you, by giving you the perspective of someone not involved in your issues and coming across these two posts for the first time. It seems like you should cut down on the drugs, or seek psychological help. That's how it seems. I'm assuming everything you say and think about the 5G stuff is correct, I know nothing about that. Good luck.

> This very page we are commenting on seems about and motivated by nothing but your conspiracy theory about why your post was lower on the list than you expected. The post went to #1 within 20 minutes of posting. I don't usually see my posts get to the front page of hackernews so being a huge nerd but I was excited and followed it closely. It hovered around on the front page for a couple of hours then disappeared suddenly without being marked as flagged and without comment from the mods. That seemed really weird. Clearly some kind of moderation was involved that I didn't understand at the time I made this "meta post". I'd wrongly assumed that if the post was to be removed it would be flagged. Now I'm learning, thanks to some other commenters here, that there are other ways content can be moderated on hackernews, and that this process is not transparent. > I'm assuming everything you say and think about the 5G stuff is correct, I know nothing about that. I definitely misunderstood your earlier comment. > It seems like you should cut down on the drugs, or seek psychological help This just comes across as condescending to me. Yes my posts were insufferable. Yes I'm excited. Please don't diagnose me.
