Much easier to make burners, say what’s on one’s mind, and move on.
- skyyler 4y agoSo you're not afraid of making controversial statements, but you're afraid to have them attached to your handle? It sounds like you're a coward, honestly.
- helloharvey 4y agoOh no!
- dragonwriter 4y ago> It does. Having never used a burner, been on here a little over a decade, been on the unpopular side of many arguments here, having never had a ban, and being #17 on the leaderboard, I’m pretty confident that HN does not, in fact, require burners. > Much easier to make burners, say what’s on one’s mind, and move on. Yes, its a lot easier to use burners than think about how you are engaging and presenting your views.
- helloharvey 4y agoMost of us at the end of the day don’t care, certainly not enough to keep track of a leaderboard of this site LMAO. As I said, use a burner, post and move on. Let the haters do their thing.
