I got flagged for replying "No." to this comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29962626 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29962626). Did that really deserve to get flagged? No.
- newsbinator 5y agoI would downvote a one-word comment like "No." because this class of comment does nothing to further discussion. If it were "No, and here's why" then I'd upvote it instead.
- greenyoda 5y agoThat comment was probably deemed to be unsubstantive - you replied "no" to a lot of stuff without explaining why you were disagreeing with it. (I would have just downvoted that comment, not flagged it - I only flag comments for serious policy violations like incivility, spam, etc.)
