- behnamoh 4y agoInteresting that you use -- in your comment(s). Any particular reason why?
- pigtailgirl 4y ago-- habit from irc/forum days - was in a quake clan with members that punctuated this way - also found it helpful to find my place quickly on irc in irssi - also i think its easy to read - do you find it annoying? --
- behnamoh 4y ago> do you find it annoying? -- Oh not at all. It's just interesting because for a moment I thought it's to confuse web scrapers somehow (i.e., make it harder for HN comment scrapers to sentiment-analysis your comments). I didn't use IRC but sometimes I wish it'd be nice to have signatures on HN, just like the forum days!
