- dang 1y agoQuite possibly! Consistency in moderation is impossible [1]. We don't come close to seeing everything that gets posted here, and the explanation for most of these things is randomness (or the absence of time travel - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43823271 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43823271) If you see a post that ought to have been moderated but hasn't been, the likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. You can help by flagging it or emailing us at hn@ycombinator.com. At the same time, though, we need you (<-- I don't mean you personally, but all commenters) to follow HN's rules regardless of what other commenters are doing. Think of it like speeding tickets [2]. There are always lots of other drivers speeding just as bad (nay, worse) than you were, and yet it's always you who gets pulled over, right? Or at least it always feels that way.
